    LUX focuses on visual arts-based moving image work, a definition which includes experimental film, video art, installation art, performance art, personal documentary, essay films and animation. The organisation’s main activities are distribution, exhibition, publishing, commissioning, research, and professional development support, and the newly designed website neatly reflects all these activities. Of particular note is the easily searchable collection of 4500 films and videos by approximately 1500 artists, which evolved from the holdings of the now-defunct London Filmmakers Co-operative, London Video Arts and The Lux Centre. These works are available for hire or sale (via the online shop), some may be viewed online in their entirety (Video section) and some are included in online themed exhibitions (listed in the ‘What’s On’ section which also includes detailed information on LUX projects and events, and a calendar listing of upcoming events across London involving artists’ moving image). The site also features a blog and downloadable podcasts and vodcasts of interviews with artists, documentation of LUX events and specially commissioned content.

    The American Film Institute Silent Film Web site contains over 25,000 entries for silent American films made between 1893 and 1930. Entries for silent films produced after 1911 are for feature-length films only. Detailed information on cast, crew, plot summaries, subjects, genres and historical notes are included for each film. Entries for approximately 750 silent feature films also include information on availability and sources for VHS (NTSC) tapes, Laserdiscs and DVDs (Region 1). It is possible to search by title, personality and company names but also, more intriguingly, by character name as well as by literary source and by related music and song titles. For all that, the site has very few prompts as to what is contained in this vast resource and unfortunately it will be of most immediate use to those that have a good idea of what is likely to be in it to begin with.
