IBES is the Virtual Institute for Behavioral and Experimental Sciences. That is the whole name, and it's a mouthful, so mostly we say VIBES.

What we care about: human behavior, AI behavior, and human–AI interaction. That's broad on purpose.

This site isn't a catalogue of anything we've done. It's more like a desk drawer. The texts here are old, public domain, and credited. Modern writers appear only as paraphrase, clearly marked. The Blake pictures come from museums that released them openly; see credits. No cookies; what the site keeps in your browser is on this page. The drawings and GIFs were drawn in code, by script.
