If you have any interest at all in avant-garde film

Just thought I'd pull your coat to a fantastic website, UbuWeb;
they have a huge library of avant-garde film on-line and have now made it available in streaming format, so if you don't want to wait around to download stuff you can watch it on the computer, a la YouTube. They have over 300 films on the site, including some real rarities -- films from Group Medvedkine, the '70s workers film group that Chris Marker helped found, a huge selection of Shuji Terayama, Haroun Farocki, Jack Smith, Marcel Duchamp ( I didn't know he had made films).
Also a great collection of poets and music that is downloadable.
