the body internet

the body internet is a musing about the deconstruction and reconstruction of gay male pornographic material found on the Internet. The purpose of this work is to show that the original images were simply information. I have used that same information to create some remarkable and beautiful results.

the body internet is specifically about data and how it is used in a society that is consumed by, and is a consumer of information.

The incredible proliferation of Web sites on the Internet demands that one is discerning about the information that one digests and manipulates.

the body internet is a reflective work, of over 300 images, that encourages, in the viewer, a critical understanding of Internet media -- it's positive potential and potential for abuse.
