THE MANY FACES OF FRANKLIN FURNACE

www.franklinfurnace.org launched on October 25, 1996 with its first look and feel designed by Seth Zalman, who volunteered to be Franklin Furnace's first Webmaster. William Wegman's 1983 drawing, "Visit the New Facility," was Franklin Furnace's first splash page, aptly symbolizing our impending transformation from physical to virtual.

Betsey Gallagher, Program Coordinator, worked with Daniel Georges, artist and curator of "In the Flow: Alternate Authoring Strategies," Franklin Furnace's 20th anniversary exhibition, designing our February 1, 1997 splash page, the first face of Franklin Furnace as a virtual entity.

In 1998 Alice Wu created a new site to celebrate Franklin Furnace's first forays into the world of online performance art in collaboration with Pseudo.com.

In 1999, Alice handed the site off to Tiffany Ludwig who developed Franklin Furnace's physical and virtual worlds.

In 2001, Tiffany designed a new navigation scheme, look and feel to celebrate Franklin Furnace's 25th Anniversary.

In 2005, Dolores Zorreguieta with the collaboration of Oliver Wunsch and Ella Bjelm, designed a new site reorganizing and renaming Franklin Furnace's categories.
