A frequent, or not-so-frequent, roundup of the most interesting videos about, or made in, the D.C. area.

What better way to kick off this new roundup than with the two men who inspire equal parts love and rage in the D.C. area? But first, here's a clip of a performance at the Textile Museum, Vibskov & Emenius – Circular Series, in which men in white tights weave weird things in the night.

If you're the kind of person who likes like to end your workday feeling infuriated, then boy do I have something for you! How about a video from last weekend's "Restoring Honor" rally, in which Glenn Beck disciples tell Obama to "go home" to Kenya? And that's far from the worst comment herein.

Wale might be a source of controversy to some, but it's hard to find fault with this well-produced clip, shot at NYC's Highline Ballroom. If every show is like this, maybe it's time I saw him in concert.

For a banging party closer to home, here's a crowd hollering out the chorus to "Thriller" at the 9:30 Club.

And for today's frivolous video: factory porn! I'll admit, though, that there's something absolutely hypnotizing about watching boxes travel up circular conveyor belts to the sounds of generic electro-funk.
