high-quality images of random art every new tab filing your days with wonder

Andreas Fautsch, 2021-02-01

This extension is the best. Multiple times in a day, I'm looking at incredible works that keep me thinking and feeling through my mundane existence, elevating my consciousness so that I'm not dead inside. No, but seriously, most truth is said in jest, and I really love this extension. The Institute has a mindboggling collection, and there are things that come up that I wouldn't normally stop to look at. Install this immediately.
