Online Sources
Good Sources
These types of online source are generally good sources of information and support for your projects:
- Articles in scholarly or professional journals: "Johannes Baader's Plasto-Dio-Dada-Drama: the Mysticism of the Mass Media" (Michael White, also available in PDF)
- Articles by an expert on an institutional (reputable) website: "Dada without Duchamp / Duchamp without Dada: Avant-garde tradition and the Individual Talent" (Marjorie Perloff)
- Interviews with experts on the subject (or insiders): Interview with John Cage by Paul Cummings
Note: Again, it doesn't hurt that the Cage interview is stored on a good institutional site
- Texts in a primary source (e.g., a historical document): Blindman 2
Note: The well-designed sitenav at the top of the Blindman page
Not So Good Sources
These types of online source may sometimes prove useful, suggesting directions for further research, but generally they are not good sources of information and support for your work.
- A personal site on a subject: Dada Online
- An online encyclopedia entry: Wikepedia entry on Dada
- An online news story: "Dada on Display at the National Gallery of Art"
