UbuWeb gets a TikTok-style clone for avant-garde art
Original: UbuWeb has been 'tocked (TikTok clone for avant garde art)
A new project called UbuTok has recreated the avant-garde art archive UbuWeb as a TikTok-style vertical video feed. The experimental site repackages the collection of experimental film, sound art and poetry into short scrolling clips. The project is drawing attention from technologists and art fans debating whether the format helps or cheapens experimental art.
Why now: The playful collision of a TikTok interface with experimental art archives is striking a chord online.
