Tout-Fait: Marcel Duchamp Studies Online Journal

Online since 1999, and in its current perpetual form since 2005, Tout-Fait (French for "ready-made") is a not-for-profit online journal devoted to the study of Marcel Duchamp. The journal is published by CyberBOOK+ Publications, part of the Art Science Research Laboratory (ASRL), located in New York City. At first glance some of the resources appear older, with posting dates in the early oughts. However, many articles have more recent updates (or have had links checked, at least). For example, a review of Wayne Andersen's book, Marcel Duchamp: The Failed Messiah, originally added to the site in 2010 around the time of the book's publication, was updated in June of 2016. In addition to book reviews, Tout-Fait offers research articles, interviews, such as "Seven Questions for Thomas Hirschhorn," the first winner of the Prix Marcel Duchamp in 2000, as well as letters, personal reminisces, and shorter posts in the Notes section. Some pieces can be translated into English, German, or French. There is a Music section with audio, and a Multimedia section that includes Ludwig Schmidtpeter's "Animated Reconstruction of Rotoreliefs," a set of 6 double sided discs Duchamp created in 1935 meant to be spun on a turntable at 40-60 rpm.
