A diligently researched and rather excellent (if largely Hollywood focussed) montage by Scott Ewing, who (prior to suddenly disappearing from Vimeo) sez:
The following montage chronicles the evolution of film from its conception in 1878 by Edward J. Muybridge to the Lumiere brothers in 1895. Georges Melies a trip to the moon in 1902 was a total game changer and from there we go to the first theatrical releases starting in 1920-2014 … this portion of the montage is chronological. There are some notable films which are absent from the montage such as the Great Train Robbery (1903), The Story of the Kelly Gang (1906) and Birth of a Nation (1915). These and many others were either impossible to find or did not fit in with the creative direction of the montage. There is also a Dumb and Dumber (1994) dancing clip between Tropic Thunder and 500 Days of Summer … this was intentional I assure you.
The superbly unhinged crotch-thrusting, breast-dancing video for William ‘DJ Snake’ Grigahcine and Jonathan ‘Lil John’ Smith’s single Turn Down For What.
Directed by Daniels (they of the excellent Dogboarding)

During a quiet section of a church performance last month, the trombone player of the London Central Fellowship Band feels a sneeze coming on.
Does he remove his lips from the mouthpiece? He does not.
Hank Green of SciShow breaks down the biology, symptoms and treatment of migraine. Sez he:
If you’ve never had a migraine, you might think it’s just a really bad headache. But if you’ve ever had them, or you know someone who does, you know that they’re much worse and much more complicated. A true migraine is a multi-symptom disorder of the central nervous system that affects the brain. But yes, really bad headaches are a major component of it, probably the most significant and identifiable component, but usually they last longer than a normal headache, lasting any where from 4 hours to several days and it brings along a whole array of other symptoms.
