Teal graphic quoting Jason Scott, Free-range archivist, for the Vanishing Culture series, with the quote "But by 2009, bugs and compatibility issues, the introduction of HTML5 with many of the same features, and a declaration that flash would no longer be welcome Apple's iOS devices, sent Flash into a spiral that it never recovered from." Dark greenish-black graphic quoting Jason Scott, Free-range archivist, for the Vanishing Culture series, with the quote "At the Internet Archive we have a technical marvel: emulators running in the browser, allowing computer programs—after a fashion and with some limits—to play with a single click." Book cover titled “Vanishing Culture” on a teal background. Pixel-art style graphics show a VHS tape, open book, film reel, chain link, and vinyl record dissolving into digital fragments. At the bottom, a cursor icon points to the word “SAVE,” alongside an archive-style building icon, evoking digital preservation.
