What there is to read

Inside the museum, pressing R at a wall or an exhibit opens a page of writing. These are those pages — the same labels the museum panel shows, published so they can be read, linked and searched without flying there first.

The Van Gogh House

• The Starry Night: Where the Question Begins — The painting the course opens on, and the question it asks about what a night sky is for.
• Painting the People He Loved — The postman and the poet: why Van Gogh painted the people around him the way he did.
• Where the Forever Lives — The sower, the river and the raising: the paintings where Van Gogh looked for what lasts.
• His Father's Bible, and a Small Worn Book — One still life, two books, and an argument between a father and a son.
• Two Friends, One Café — Van Gogh and Gauguin painted the same café. Standing between the two is the whole lesson.
• The Violet That Time Hid — How conservation science reads a colour that has already faded, and what it can honestly claim.

Mr Yancy's Class Room

• Pixel Science: Tiny Pieces, Big Ideas — Start here: the room's own introduction to how very small pieces add up to a picture.
• Pixels: From Dots to Form — Where a shape comes from when all you have is dots on a grid.
• From Bits to Meaning — A bit holds one of two states. Follow those choices up into numbers, letters, pictures and sound.
• Three Games — Three small games that each teach one idea about information.

Journey of Art

• P2: Faith, Doubt, Dread — Eunice's process book on dread, doubt as a bridge, rescue, and peace inside a storm — the page every one of the ten P2 works opens.
• P3: Supreme — Love in 80 Parts — The four final music-responsive works first, followed by their listening excerpts, translation method, process and eighty-part word score.
• Before Supreme: Shape, Cut, Reassemble — Four shapes, twenty-four studies and two cut-paper rebuilds presented as the material preparation for Supreme.
• Lucas and Jesus — From Underdrawing to Finished Painting — Three documentary photographs of one painting partway through: a drawing, a first pass of colour, and a near-finished surface.
• Dream — Two early paintings beside their finished museum versions, with a short note about each style.
