---- Old Pitch below ----

The Stiftung für Kunst, Kultur und Geschichte (SKKG) owns a large collection of historical objects: From General Franco's toothpick holder to Sisi's piano to the spinning wheel from Appenzell.

The data on the objects consists of the name, the genre, the date, the material, the dimensions and a photograph of the object. The goal is to present this data visually or to find new contextualizations and connections within the data. There are no limits to creativity.

The data sets are:

  • selection of objects that are said to have belonged to known persons. Link

  • collection of crossbows. Link

  • collection of objects that came from a former Appenzeller museum. Link
