Kinda wary about how to post this, because I want people to see it but I'm hesitant about connecting this journal to my real name (not that I do a very good job of keeping the two separate otherwise . . .). Ah well.

Remember that twenty-minute video installation project I was working on for the Ethnographic Appetites/Feeding the Senses conference/exhibition at York University? Well, I finished it, on time for the March 12th conference, only it's three times as long as I said it would be (one hour and fourteen seconds). Oops (what can I say, I kept falling in love with dialogue scenes, and those eat up time like time-eating locusts). This was the first video-editing project that I've completed all on my own, and a wildly ambitious one at that, so the learning curve was steep. I can see a lot of things that I'd do differently if I did it again, clumsy cuts I'd like to finesse and material I'd like to integrate (so many clips I just didn't have time to collect), but given the givens I'm pretty satisfied with what I was able to accomplish. My humble thanks to everyone who pointed me at or gave me access to sources, and deepest, wettest gratitude to the creators of
kink_bingo,
eruthros and
thingswithwings, for providing such invaluable resources as the
kink_wiki and the Ridiculous Giant Kink Bingo Playlist, without which this project could never have been completed.
Media Erotometrics
This video installation project provokes viewers to consider portrayals of 'kinky' and 'vanilla' sexual practices and relationships in popular culture, and also to consider their own affective responses to these scenes and the expectations they bring to and take away from their viewing. This project examines ways in which (sexual) acts and identities characterized as 'normal' or 'abnormal' are treated in popular media production and received by viewers, exploring ways in which the practices and expectations of 'kinky' and 'mainstream' (or 'vanilla') audiences shape and are shaped by accessible representations of alternative sexualities. I hope to inspire, through this work, a resonant exploration or interrogation of 'common sense' concerning sex and power, and the role of popular media in the construction and dissemination of normative sexual hierarchies, but leave it open to those who experience the video to move with and be moved by their perceptions as they are able.
The installation consist of a seamlessly looping cycle of about an hour of video clips taken from film, television, and commercial advertising edited together into fourteen broadly themed segments, interspersed with title cards inviting viewers to evaluate their responses to the montage.
This is a transformative fanwork and an imaginative exploration. All music and video footage used in this project remains the intellectual property of its respective creators and no claim to legal ownership is implied by this reterritorialization.
This video installation contains scenes of nudity, coarse language, & potentially triggering subject matter including violence, torture, and non-consensual confinement and humiliation. Viewer discretion is advised.
If there's anything particular you'd like to avoid, let me know somehow and I'll (eventually) go through and timestamp parts you might want to skip.
