How simplifying the basic tools for digital expression will lead to a new creative digital economy.

We design tools for creating digital content in a networked environment, and the means by which the content can be leveraged as creative capital within an experimental online micro-economy that we call OpenAtelier. Our primary impact targets are in the areas of general digital media service architectures, global e-commerce, distance education, and visual information display systems.

What We're Looking For

Students with a background in computer science, graphic design, architecture, or visual art.

Our Work at a Glance

OPENCODE is a programming tool, perhaps the most elegantly simple programming environment ever. It offers “two click” programming for the inexperienced, along with sharing and tagging features for more advanced users.

Special Requirements
A portfolio of work is required with your application.
