X-rated is a video installation consisting of nine television monitors protruding through four plastic laminate panels arranged in a screen-like manner. The first in the series of Modular Video Installations, it was exhibited at im n iL Gallery in Brooklyn in March 2002. The video for X-rated cycled through a variety of selections including solid white screens, then 3D animated shapes traversing through the white space, then strobing 'X's' and finally the same 3D animated shapes, now skinned with x-rated images downloaded from internet pornography sites (3D animation meets internet porno). The entire tape loop lasted approximately 10 minutes. A 10 second excerpt from x-rated. |
