An exploration of State and institutional archives related to the Old Melbourne Gaol. The Archive of the Bureaucracy exists as a series of notations, inventories and photographs, representing the unique internal systems of the Institution. It is deeply impersonal, reducing the histories of those who move through the system to a series of data points.
