The Fascinator

An extensible, open-source platform for managing your digital objects. Using a variety of plugins, you can transform your digital objects into new formats, search and browse through your collection, collaborate through tagging and annotations, and create packages of information for publishing to all manner of systems. See our Features page for more information.

At the moment The Fascinator is at the Alpha release stage. Much of the software is written and we're doing a lot of testing before we say that it's ready for the big time. We're also currently working to create our user documentation and technical support information.

You can download The Fascinator Desktop Edition to give it a whirl or contact us if you'd like to know more.

For those more technically minded folks who'd like to know all about the system, why not head over to our Fascinator Wiki and find out what makes the system tick?

A range of editions are available to help you get started.
