Public Byte

The living layer atop our collective culture.

Culture is a shared commons, alive through dialogue and creation.

Public Byte is the common layer for public works. It lets people who work with cultural data — influencers, researchers, critics, curators, editors, and others — attach shared notes directly to the works they care about.

We connect you to material and the people who give it meaning. Add your perspective as a public annotation to the work itself.

Every contribution becomes a meaningful byte in the network. Follow paths, build collections, and create anew from our collective inheritance.

Help shape this network from the start. You'll be notified when access opens.
