New Discovery!
Okay, so I know some of my other posts made me sound like an internet hating crazy Luddite, but I SWEAR I'm not. I offer UBUWEB as proof. UBU is a repository for visual, concrete and sound poetry and essays and articles ranging from Robert Creeley to Jean Baudrillard. As print becomes more and more obsolete, it's comforting to know that there are still knights of the written word working hard to make these historical and important works available to new audiences.
"UbuWeb functions as a distribution center for hard-to-find, out-of-print and obscure materials, transferred digitally to the web. Our scanning, say, an historical concrete poem in no way detracts from the physical value of that object in the real world; in fact, it probably enhances it. Should something return to print, we will remove it from our site immediately. Also, should an artist find their material posted on UbuWeb without permission and wants it removed, please let us know. However, most of the time, we find artists are thrilled to find their work cared for and displayed in a sympathetic context. As always, we welcome more work from existing artists on site."Bresson's Movies by Robert Creeley
