Philippine Internet Archive

Info

The Philippine Internet Archive is a new research institute founded on the premise that the history of the Philippine internet is the history of the Filipino people.

In an age of revisionism, disinformation, and repression, its work envisions a nation with a rebuilt relationship to technologies that empower us as stewards of both individual & collective memory. We work with particular care towards identities that have historically been written out of the internet. The Philippine Internet Archive is concerned with preservation of digital work, movements, cultures, and art; the media archaeology of the Philippines; and education towards new ways of communal being online / offline.

It was founded in January 2023, and is a deep work in progress.
