Project description online

In the work "Colors of Pornography" I examine the purely physical representation of sexual images. A monitor is an interconnection of several million 3-colored lights that are individually driven by chip to excite our eyes. I dive into the essential representation of computer generated imagery. I deconstruct the image. I make an abstraction. I show the pixel. Calculate the average color. Show the binary. I try to discover the similarities and differences in the representation of sexual content.
