=== Overview ===
In 2024 Zentrum für Netzkunst has applied for their first full scale reconstruction project. Even though in the past the initative has aquired project budget to pay artists to reconstruct their work, this was the first time a conceptual approach and a methodology was developed for a reconstruction project. The reconstruction project was founded by [https://www.digis-berlin.de/foerderprogramm/ Digis "Förderprogramm zur Digitalisierung von Kulturgut des Landes Berlin"] as the very first project on digital-born artwork.

=== Data inventory assessment===
The artist Karl Heinz Jeron posessed a copy of the original files on an external hard drive. A clone copy of the data has been made and stored on additional storages as well as on the cloud by Zentrum für Netzkunst. However, as the team later found out, the f.hmtl (index page) of variant 1 was no longer available. The full archive of user entries was secured on the external hard drive.
Later in the proccess through a photography found in the documenta archive, we discovered that there was a blue menu in the variant 1, which was however slightly different to the menu used in variant 3.
Unfortunately, the menu pages concept.html, context.html, and credits.html were no longer available - only later versions of these files from variant 3 were found.
Karl Heinz Jeron also posessed a copy of the variant 3 files which the two artists prepared for the CD archive.
In Joachim Blank's private archive there were some additional individual files found - f.e. the original file used for the logo "without addresses" or the redirect files forwarding to later domains of variant 2A and 2B.
In general it was often difficult to prove the age or the version of the archived files.

===== Legal Situation =====
The two artists have to transfer the rights of use of without addresses variant 4 (both the simulation as well as the documentation material) to the Zentrum für Netzkunst e.V. by means of a contract that is unrestricted in terms of time and space. The simulation is published under the licence CC-BC-NY 4.0 and the metadata for the whole reconstruction under CC Zero.
