Continuum

Connecting the past, shaping the future.

Continuum is our renewed commitment to all things alumni.
For 40 years, the Media Lab has launched bold ideas—and bold people—into the world. With Continuum, we’re creating a lasting structure for alumni connection, collaboration, and contribution. This is a platform, yes, but more importantly: it’s a long-term vision to make the Media Lab feel like home, even after you’ve left the building.

And like all things "Labby", it’s a work in progress. Some of our records are old. Some of our systems are still catching up. But the intention is clear: to build something flexible, inclusive, and evolving—just like the community it serves.

Start here to reconnect with fellow alumni, support future researchers, and stay engaged with the Lab’s ongoing work.
