How the project lives
Code, operational knowledge and responsibility.
The product’s direction emerges through dialogue with participating cultural institutions. Caldero Systems is the development team behind artwork. As a development and service partner, the team can guide implementation, migration, operations and support directly from development. The project itself remains open and free to use.
