Film resources on the internet

As I mentioned in class, there are a wealth of resources about avant-garde and influential film and video on the internet. The trick is, of course, finding the stuff that is important. 

Here are some resources:

UBUWEB - a large web-based educational resource for avant-garde material available on the internet, founded in 1996 by poet Kenneth Goldsmith. It offers visual, concrete and sound poetry, expanding to include film and sound art mp3 archives. http://www.ubu.com/

From UBUWEB there are links to film and also print resources - see http://www.ubu.com/aspen/

For film see http://www.ubu.com/film/

The film we watched was Un Chien Andalou (1929) by Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali. It is no longer available on UBU but you can search for it on google.com. Things are often available once you know to look for them. UBU is a good starting point for making a list for your self-guided tour.
