UbuWeb

UbuWeb is a web-based educational resource for avant-garde material available on the internet, created by poet Kenneth Goldsmith that has been active since 1996.UbuWeb does not distribute commercially viable works but rather resurrects avant-garde sound art, video and textual works through their translation into a digital art web environment - re-contextualising them with current academic commentary and contemporary practice.[6] It houses and distributes freely the entire archive of the Tellus Audio Cassette Magazine project.UbuWeb: Ethnopoetics, curated by Jerome Rothenberg, is fusing the avant-garde with traditional ethnic practices.UbuWeb is not affiliated to any academic institution, instead relying on alliances of interest and benefiting from bandwidth donations from its partnerships with GreyLodge, WFMU, PennSound, The Electronic Poetry Center, The Center for Literary Computing, and ArtMob.
