Lazarus Archive

Collection · since 2011

Digital Lives

The email, photographs, messages and papers of individual people.

Personal archives come to Lazarus from the people who made them, or from their families after their death. Each is accepted on the terms its creator or estate sets, following the principles in the Half-Life brief.

Some are open to everyone. Some are sealed until a date their creator chose. None will ever be used to build a replica of the person they belonged to.
