About the collection
A museum of hubris, hype, and expensive bad ideas.
The Repository of Ill-Advised Ventures is a personal collection of objects from moments when somebody, somewhere, should have known better.
The whole thing started around 2015 or 2016, when Theranos began imploding. I went looking for a hoodie and somehow found a centrifuge instead.
