We are a cooperative of imaging scientists dedicated to advancing open standards and open source technology in scientific image data analysis, storage, and dissemination. We believe that collaborating with open tools can dramatically accelerate scientific progress for the benefit of all. We deliver our mission through standards development, software development, training, and education.
The shape of open source
At its core, open source is about collaboration. Whether it’s version control, licenses, or issue trackers—everything exists to support people working with each other. Open source embodies a model for…

Ecosystem Mapping — Open Tech Strategies | Blog
All the power of open source comes from throwing in with your neighbors, even the neighbors you don't like very much. For most projects, the main reason to get involved in open source is to create productive relations with as many participants as possible, including rivals. Doing this well requires understanding who is in your ecosystem and how they relate to each other.
Block - Open Source
By collaborating in the open, we create higher quality software, hardware, and protocols through relentless collective examination, and also ensure our systems, hardware, and protocols evolve to meet real-world needs.
MOSAIC — Modular Open Science, AI & Collective Intelligence
MOSAIC is an R&D program to build a new medium for large-scale, AI-augmented networked research.
Free Images and Open Access | National Gallery of Art
Free open access image downloads are now available directly from the object pages located on this website. Close to 60,000 images are available for download, and we will continue to add more images for free access as more works are photographed and as works of art enter the public domain.
From Albums to Streams: How Modularity Changes Systems
Scientific publishing is breaking under document-centric formats designed for a physical world. Borrowing from music’s shift from albums to streaming, we make the case that open access alone cannot deliver reuse, trust, or scale. The future of science depends on modular, interoperable research components that move across tools, enabling new workflows, tools, and ecosystems.
