VENE.club
vene.club, an editorial platform on technology and extinction:
brutalist on purpose, and half-run by machines.
Vene documents the present through digital collapse — AI, internet culture, XR, art, and the stranger phenomena that surface between them. It is a living archive rather than a feed.
We built it on Sanity and Astro with a Chromium extension for publishing, and used LLMs across curation and distribution while keeping every editorial decision human.
The Vene reading view and publishing extension.
The stack is deliberately small — Sanity, Astro, and a Chromium extension that turns a page into a post — because the editorial rhythm matters more than the platform.
AI handles summarisation, visuals, and distribution. Selection stays human, which is the only part that was ever the point.
