strauh.al/2026_updates include:

a major overhaul to how the artworks are currently categorized;
names like "fine_art" "art_misc" "aesthetics" "2025_art" "more_fine_art" and "somehow_even_more_art" have been phased out for directory names pertaining to the century in which the artwork was made and have been consolidated on the new art page.

each artwork now has a proper title instead of a string of random numbers and characters.

this is in service of adding an interactive 3D museum interface to the archive.

here is a link to a mockup

when mixed reality glasses become mainstream in a decade, the archive will be fully ready to be deployed in xr format.

i have also decided to add a "randomize order" button to the art page to keep the spirit of discovery and anachronism alive in response to this nice letter:

Dear Webmaster,

I can say this is the coolest website out there. I can't say I like the art being arranged in linear fashion. Links like Art, More Art and Even more fine art were some of my favorites. I thought it was a nice juxtaposition to see some art from 1654 next to some fabulous sci-fi peice from 1970.

Anyway that's the two cents of someone on the internet.

Thank you kindly,

Raul

thank you all for your continued support and have a nice 2026

best,
ernest
