Experimental investigations and transformations of porn, including self as porn-mechanism. 'The Sexual Economy of Risk' partly visualizes reflections of Slavoj Zizek (from On Belief): '...the passage from animal copulation to properly human sexuality affects the human animal in such a way that it causes the human animal's radical self-withdrawal, so that the zero-level of human sexuality is not the 'straight' sexual intercourse, but the solitary act of masturbation sustained by fantasizing ---the passage from this self-immersion to involvement with an Other, to finding pleasure in the Other's body is by no means 'natural', it involved a series of traumatic cuts, leaps and inventive improvistaions...' -Slavoj Zizek.
