Over 2,000 video interviews, covering conflicts in which Australia has been involved, from World War One to Afghanistan . The archive encompasses the battlefront, the home front, media and entertainment, children, teachers, wives, workers and clerical staff. The project is an initiative of the Australian government and is hosted by the University of New South Wales, Canberra. Searching is done by theme - usually the name of the conflict - and then divided by sub-theme. Users can watch the interviews as video, or listen to them as audio files. Each interview is accompanied by a full transcript.

Clovis Salmon - aka Sam the Wheels - is a first generation Jamaican migrant who arrived in the UK in the 1950s. Between the 1960s and the 1980s Salmon filmed the everyday life of the Caribbean community in Brixton, making him one of the first black documentary filmmakers in Britain. This site is a participatory arts project featuring digitised footage from Salmon’s personal archives as well as numerous video interviews with Brixtonians, including gay rights activists, anarchist squatters, rectors, artists, Rastafarians and dub poet Linton Kwesi Johnson. The site appears not to have been maintained for some time but most of the videos are still playing out.

Musician Darren Hayman has created this website to document his ‘project about rural life’ in which he visits every one of the 54 Thankful Vilages in England and Wales . A Thankful or Blessed Village, is the name given by writer and educator Arthur Mee to a settlement where every soldier returned alive from the First World War. The films, music and text on the site rarely refer directly to the Great War itself: Hayman’s project is more a way of exploring aspects of life in small rural communities and documenting his own responses to his journey through the music he makes - written and recorded in each village as he travels the country.

A series of engaging, lively videos produced for the Royal Society. The format is simple: in each episode video journalist Brady Haran and Keith Moore, the Royal Society’s Librarian, look at a single object in the society’s collections and discuss its scientific and historical significance. Among the objects uncovered are Captain Cook’s quadrant, the letters of H.G. Wells, a very powerful 18th century magnet and some very expensive 19th century photographs.
