}}Are.na is an online social networking community and creative research platform founded by Charles Broskoski, Daniel Pianetti, Chris Barley, and Chris Sherron.[1] Are.na was built as a successor to hypertext projects like Ted Nelson's Xanadu, and as an ad-free alternative to social networks like Facebook, forgoing "likes," "favorites," or "shares" in its design. Are.na allows users to compile uploaded and web-clipped "blocks" into different "channels," and has been described as a "vehicle for conscious Internet browsing," "playlists, but for ideas," and a "toolkit for assembling new worlds."[2]

Features and community

Are.na is especially popular among designers, artists, and architects. Designer Allan Yu[3] as well as artists Michael Bell-Smith,[4] Cory Arcangel,[5], Emily Segal,[6] and artist Margaret Lee[7] have all cited Are.na as an important tool in their creative processes. Many Are.na users, including Ryder Ripps,[8] were previously members of image boards like FFFFOUND!, which closed May 2017.

Are.na's blog, written and curated by Meg Miller, features essays built around Are.na's research and publishing tools, as well as noteworthy or "featured" user channels. The New York-based consulting office Consortia has also integrated Are.na into written publications, using embedded blocks as an alternative to footnoting and hyperlinks.[9]

Are.na-specific terms include:

  • Blocks: uploaded or web-clipped links, images, text, PDF, video, or other file formats.
  • Channels: file folders for organizing blocks

Revenue model

Are.na is free to use but finances itself through the sale of premium accounts with the ability to upload an unlimited number of private blocks.[10] It also sells branded apparel on its store.

Unlike Pinterest, Are.na does not finance itself through advertising or user data collection.[11]

History

Co-founder Charles Broskoski began working for Rhizome's John Michael Boling and Sapient Corporation's Stuart Moore in the early 2010s, coding prototypes of a platform which would containerize knowledge into "informational building blocks." Soon after, Broskoski brought artist Damon Zucconi and K-HOLE's Dena Yago onto the project. Broskoski, Yago, and Zucconi eventually split off to found Are.na, soon joined by co-founder Chris Sherron (also of K-HOLE) and Dan Brewster. Broskoski set out to build an open-ended community tool, with Ted Nelson's Computer Lib/Dream Machines and hypertext project Xanadu as major influences on Are.na's founding and design.[10][12]

Collaborations

In 2015, Are.na worked with the Guggenheim Museum on the Åzone Futures Market. The museum's first online exhibition, curated by Troy Conrad Therrien, Åzone Futures Market allowed visitors to the site to invest cåin, a digital currency, in different technology-driven visions of the future.[13]

Two years later, Are.na partnered with the Chicago Architecture Biennial, building out their blog alongside ArchDaily, Archinect, and Architizer.[14][15] Are.na has also partnered with the Manhattan Museum of Arts and Design, New Inc. incubator, the Vilém Flusser archives, and artists Carson Salter and David Hilmer Rex.[16]
