Dictionary entry

Type
Let interface text, product names, filenames and gallery labels coexist as distinct registers.
Composition
Place browser images, objects and documentation together without declaring one the original.
Material
Keep the traces of conversion between screenshot, compression, print, 3D output and commodity.
Caution
A collage of found web images alone does not address the circulation, reproduction and exhibition that define the tendency.
