although the vlogs i listed in my last post shouldn;t be dismissed as 'eye-candy' - there's a lot more to all of them i think.
Perhaps, but I categorize vlogs which have as their main priority a visual art _expression_ as "eye candy," because to call them "art vlogs" would, I am sure, get people howling at me that their personal diary vlogs are art, too. Which is true, but they aren't visual art.
"Eye candy" is not dismissive. It's a phrase that distinguishes between "art-as-political-commentary" vlogs from "art-as-a-visual-wow" vlogs from "art-as-something-that-instructs-and-informs" vlogs.
BTW: Since I watch vlogs mainly on my computer or my iPod, and not on my TV, the shorter format is important. Just as you don't want to read a novel on your computer, watching a long movie on the laptop is just not right. There are too many distractions.
