Hey Facebook-land. We've been laying low while our project has been getting off the ground this past year, but we've had some real highlights in starting to dig into the history and cultural impact of amplification technologies, and now we're ready to start making a little more noise here on social media. Here's a highlight reel of the past year. Stay tuned for more regular updates in 2026.
