The National Review of Live Art (NRLA) Archive is a video archive containing performances from the NRLA festival from 1986 (the first year film records were kept) to its final year in 2010. Over the thirty years of its existence, the festival became a key event in the experimental arts world, covering dance and theatre as well as multi-media installations and sound and video art. The archive’s content reflects this diversity, covering not only the performances themselves but also discussions and interviews with participating artists. Given the challenging nature of some of the film, the site has a warning that it contains "material of a sexual and violent nature and deal openly with contentious issue" and users must be over the age of 18 to access the material.

The output of Channel 4’s short form, daily arts strand, broadcast late at night, is gathered here, and consists of pieces of television "as art rather than about art". The content is diverse, with work by established names as well as new talent and features spoken word, comedy, dance, animation, video art and music. The site can be searched by genre, title and name, as well as "Random Acts" - films that are unclassifiable but function, according to the site’s curators as a kind of "creative grenade".

A new free, experimental digital arts service developed by Arts Council England in partnership with the BBC which aims to transform the way people connect with, and experience, arts and culture. The Space is divided into seven categories: Dance, Film, Literature and Spoken Word, Music, Performance & Festival, Theatre and Visual & Media Arts. Each section features streamed footage of performances (including key events streamed live), interviews with filmmakers, artists and musicians and films from the archives of the BBC, Arts Council and British Film Institute. The Space was launched in May 2012 and will be available online until October 2012. New material is being added daily to the site. Some of the material currently available includes early films by major British directors, such as Ken Russell’s Amelia and the Angel and performances of Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre in London by companies from all over the world, including this performance of King John by the Gabriel Sundukyan National Academic Theatre from Armenia.

This self-styled ‘Robin Hood of the avant-garde’ was established 15 years ago as an archive and distributor of art films and is now partially based in Mexico. The disclaimer tells us: ‘All materials are for non-commercial and / or educational use only.' There is some fascinating and rare work here as well as some genuine obscurities. Along with Tweets and podcasts, the site hosts dozens of films, shorts and features, ranging from early works by the likes of Brian de Palma and Joseph Cornell to more widely-known experimental filmmakers by such renowned practitioners as Andy Warhol, Jean Cocteau and Norman McLaren. Part of the site is now devoted to electronic music and sound. The website is large and cleanly laid out though the lack of any guided search tools is unfortunate - the legal aspects behind the hosting of much of the content is at best questionable, but its intentions are seemingly honourable.

Derived in part from the resource known as Artifact, a hub of the Resource Discovery Network (RDN), this excellent guide to websites on the ‘arts and creative industries’, provides helpful but not overwordy site descriptions and useful background material including an artists’ index and news features. NB Intute closed in July 2011 and the site has now been archived. No further resources are being added and no changes are being made to existing content, so the resource will increasingly become less useful and reliable.

The Digital Performance Archive (DPA) was an outcome of an Arts and Humanities Research Board (AHRB) funded research project between Nottingham Trent and Salford Universities to undertake a major collection and analysis of digital performance events and developments that occurred during the 1990s. The project was called DRIP-DROP, standing for Digital Resources In Performance Digital Resources On Performance, and it documented developments in the creative use of computer technologies in performance - from live theatre and dance productions that incorporated digital media, to cyberspace interactive dramas and web-casts.
The Drip-Drop project produced an extensive online searchable database of virtual theatre performance and related events from 1990 to 2000, including selected video documentation, images and statements by creators.
