[Frameworks] UbuWeb...HACKED!

[Marc Couroux]

I hope those individuals grotesquely extolling the demise of ubu 
(either overtly or silently) realize how shortlived their "thrilling" 
celebration will be. These ventures, because they are predicated on 
exposure to unseen, unheard, untold wonders (insert 2 tablespoons of 
jejune repetitive comments on the lamentable quality of the files, 
combine with 2 cups of platitudes about copyright etc.), will be 
reconstituted elsewhere, sooner than later, and more comprehensive than 
ever. These things simply cannot be stopped, and thank goodness for 
those of us hungry for new/old ideas that such ventures exist.... Ubu 
is a portal, nothing more, nothing less - an introduction to potential 
trajectories which will be carried out in a myriad of manners, by each 
individual forever transformed by the encounter...
