This website is very unclear to me. I see links to what look like articles, but there's no information on where these come from. Is it a link aggregator like HN or early reddit? Is it a search engine of some sort? Are these even real articles, or are they LLM slop? How are they arranged/ranked? How often does it refresh? Also, clicking on one of the apparent-articles causes the whole UI to move around, which is disorienting. It looks like some new boxes are created from the article, but it takes carefully watching the animation to see which movements are just the page reflowing, and which are the new box.
Overall, this looks like someone wants their website to feel nice with fancy animations and a novel UI, but they failed to properly consider practical use cases. Why would one visit this website?
I don't blame you if you couldn't find it, it is under menu then you have to checkbox AAAAN.NET then (on mobile) hit the menu button on the bottom which should load those tagged posts and find the about post... The UX is something on that site. And no https to boot.

> aaaan.net stimulates, initiates and (co)produces work and research at the fringes of art, popular culture and technology. aan focuses on innovative and explorative artistic work that is prompted by social and cultural urgency. aan is not an institute nor does it have its own space, it is a flexible organisation that consists of human hardware. For all its projects aan connects to existing organisations and complements holes in the existing cultural grid.
Unfortunately, there's no direct link to their About blurb, but there it is. (Click the first checkbox, and then About)
