For advanced inquiry into born-digital media
Founded and directed by Dr. Dene Grigar, the Electronic Literature Lab (ELL) contains over 80 vintage Macintosh & PC computers, dating back from 1977, vintage software, peripherals, and a library of over 300 works of electronic literature and other media. ELL's activities focus on curation, documentation, preservation, conservation, and production of born-digital art, literature, and video games. It has created and continues to manage the ELO's The NEXT and supports video game R&D through CMDC Studios.
