Archivio #11

ARCHIVIO N°11 explores the origins and afterlives of the digital age. Curated by Arduino co-founder Massimo Banzi and technology historian Cecilia Botta, this issue maps how technology is preserved, collected, and understood today. Focusing on global technology archives, it traces the cultural value of early computing through stories, institutions, and collectors. The PETSCII cover by artist Ailadi nods to the visual language of 8-bit systems, while a special poster charts Italy’s technology archives.

ARCHIVIO is a magazine that uncovers hidden stories from archives, giving voice to the materials and the people who preserve them. Each issue explores a single theme through expert curation, combining research, storytelling, and strong visual design to rethink how memory connects past and future. Renewed every four issues with a new editorial team and perspective, it offers fresh ways to look inside the world’s archives.
