Monoskop is a wiki for collaborative studies of arts, media and humanities, providing specialized information on art theory, modernism, avant-garde art and film. Articles are sorted alphabetically and by subject, with links to sources, critiques, concepts and keywords, biographical details of artists and producers, as well as movements, practices and techniques.
 
 
The initiative was launched by Dusan Barok, activist and writer involved in the theory and practice of art and software at the University of Bratislava, Slovakia. Barok started the Koridor website and the BURUNDI medialab, while also developing an open source tool, 70 websites and databases for cultural, education and art organizations.
 
 
Monoskope develops its wiki-library with plenty of publications in different languages, movies by Chris Marker, Dziga Vertov, Harun Farocki, and others, as well as video, music, poetry and propaganda archives. The project manages a collection of magazines and periodicals specialized in avant-garde and modernism, with the aim of reclaiming and promoting the theoretical and formal content, as well as ideological and historical value found in these sources for the digital age.
 
 
The project’s website gathers information on important art movements, such as futurism, concrete poetry, experimental film, lettrism, pirate radio, mail art, hacker culture, digital art, fluxus, light art, video activism, sound art, urban practices, cyberpunk, tactical media, community television, net art, cyberfeminism, servers, bio art, glitch art, the internet, copyright, and data activism.
