When the US Department of War released the first wave of UAP records, the official page was a folder tree of 157 files you had to download one by one. So I rendered every page, packed them into one canvas, and wrote the radar, the cursor reticle, and the cockpit ambience that makes it feel like the room those files lived in.
4,124 pages, 28 clips, 38 photos, eight decades of records. Pannable in every direction like a globe. The redactions are the originals. Nothing here was added or edited.
The artifacts themselves are unbelievable to look at. Coffee-stained 1947 typewriter carbons. Crayon-marked Air Force incident reports. Restricted-stamped saucer sketches. Diplomatic cables from Papua New Guinea on yellow telex paper. Sensor reticles tracking a white spec over the Arabian Gulf. Apollo astronauts circling lights that shouldn't be there. Each one is a small piece of the last eighty years of American paranoia and wonder, and seeing them all in one place is the whole point.
If you want to talk shop, or you want a strange thing built, I'm Sam Rahim and I run Provisions.
