UbuWeb is a web-based educational resource for avant-garde material available on the internet, created by poet Kenneth Goldsmith that has been active since 1996. It offered visual, concrete and sound poetry, expanding to include film and sound art mp3 archives.[1][2]

In January 2024, UbuWeb announced it was no longer active, posting: "As of 2024, UbuWeb is no longer active. The archive is preserved for perpetuity, in its entirety.".[3] This message has since been removed, suggesting the site is once again active.[4]
