videoville.org.. a wiki for cool music videos. An extension of videos.antville.org.

whoops. I thought it was a lot more populated than it is. Only after I posted did I bump into all the unedited items.

This is well overdue -- I was thinking of doing something similar myself a few months ago. There's so little information on music videos, and there are so many people who are fans of particular directors and so forth.

No link there for Pearl Jam's 'Do The Evoloution' film clip. Darn shame that.

Sounds like a cool idea.

Indeed, you'd think MTV would have got there before but no, their websites are useless. I don't understand why they don't keep a public database of all videos they have. On some of the side MTV UK/Europe channels they show a lot of stuff at night that you didn't even know existed.

And this site is no exception, for the moment at least... nothing I tried to watch worked.

Well, I looked at a couple of the trompe l'œuil videos before I posted it, and they all worked. It was only after I started digging deeper that I realized it was a lot more sparse than I first realized. But that's the beauty of wiki. We can contribute to it if we want to.

As for how I found it, no. I didn't see it from the penis post. I found it from a video that Jorn linked to on RobotWisdom.
