Ruccas.org, a site for unconventional computer and electronic art which features over 30 artists, has just relaunched in a new, open format.
Taking the form of a "wiki", artists can add their own pages to the site in order to share their work without any prior permission or registration. Ruccas.org offers free hosting of audio, video, software, and whatever else the artists wish to share. As ruccas.org is a wiki, artists can also collaboratively edit and build a network of pages to document the aspects of the fields they work in, softwares they use, et cetera.
Ruccas.org welcomes contributions from those working with generative and algorithmic techniques, databending and circuitbending, net art, robotics, and any other "unconventional" form of electronic or computer art. Of course, everyone is welcome to simply visit the site and download some free artwork, all of which is licensed under a Creative Commons license or placed in the public domain.
With its new format and growing community, I am hopeful that ruccas.org will become a fixture in the world of computer and electronic art in the years ahead.
