UBUweb

Glice · 09.10.2008, 01:11 PM

I couldn't find a thread dedicated to this site, so it's probably a good idea to start one. I've only been seriously ploughing through it this last week or so, I'm amazed at how much there is on there. Unfortunately, my conversational French is rubbish, so the Lacan bit is lost on me, but there's plenty elsewise on there.

Vito Acconci, for instance.

atsonicpark · 09.10.2008, 01:17 PM

yeah, sarramkrop alerted me to it a long time ago. it's excellent.

I think people have talked about the videos on it on other threads.

Whatever, repping you anyway!

Glice · 09.10.2008, 01:20 PM

It's youtube for pricks (ie, me).

█████████ · 09.10.2008, 01:33 PM

yes, i've known about it for a while know.
i especially like the film and video archives.

Sit UBU Sit. Good Dog

Phlegmscope · 09.10.2008, 01:38 PM

I never seem to explore that site (aside some cinema transgression stuff), even though I've been meaning to for years. kicks in my face please.

demonrail666 · 09.10.2008, 01:51 PM

One of those sites it's really difficult to knock (unless you're looking specifically for bukkake porn, in which case it's utter shit.)

09.10.2008, 01:53 PM

A goldmine.

I've had that problem for a while - it's a bit daunting. But you just have to crack on with these things rather than constantly watching the same video on youtube over and over (nb back of the van is fast becoming my song of the year).

fucking a! we had frequent mentions of this in the old board, then ubu web was down for a while while they revamped. they've become HUGE in recent years. HUUUUGE.

fuck, thanks for the reminder.

racehorse · 09.10.2008, 02:57 PM

An amazing site, especially for poetry. They have whole books PFDed on there.

MellySingsDoom · 09.10.2008, 03:50 PM

A world of brilliance - such a fucking great resource. The Vienna Aktionist stuff is, um, interesting, but I could spend all year watching the video stuff. And they have that rare as fuck Demetrio Stratos LP on there too!

holy fuck, a pretty extensive george kuchar collection is available there.

http://www.ubu.com/film/kuchar.html

his shit is hard to find. while the new york underground was looking at andy warhol's movies, george & mike kuchar made insane low budget movies in the bronx. they are kinda like the predecessors to john waters. awesome.

MellySingsDoom · 09.10.2008, 04:08 PM

^^^Totally agree with the !@#$%! on the Kuchar Brothers. I recommended these films on the Ubu site to another boardie a while ago. "Hold Me When I'm Naked" and "Sins Of The Fleshapoids" are genuis.

Iain · 09.12.2008, 08:40 AM

Yeah, Ubuweb is great. My personal favourite stuff on there are the Toshio Matsumoto shorts. Song Of Stone is especially amazing.

Everyneurotic · 09.12.2008, 09:37 AM

amazing site, still need to have a proper exploration.

The Taj-Mahal Travellers tour "documentary" on there is quite the watch

Пятхъдесят Шест · 09.14.2008, 01:37 PM

I frequented that site often when making mix tapes; endless points of interest.
