Abstract: A project at the University of Victoria's Maker Lab in the Humanities, the Kits for Cultural History ("Kits") are small boxes of inexpensive materials assembled for media history. Each Kit is composed of a box, prototype, model, and supplement. This kit for Hyperrhiz articulates a rationale for the Kits, provides a recipe for them, and shares example material from them.
