Cafe Flesh Video Transmissions

Interactive Video Installation
SKAN (aka Skye Daley and Daniel Wright)

Cafe Flesh Video Transmissions explores the virus as a metaphor for the contemporary breakdown of corporeal/sexual/informational boundaries. Cafe Flesh Video Transmissions is the second chapter within broader SKAN research, The Virus Project: an active and constantly evolving series of artworks that examine the complexities of both biological and electronic viral transmission as a language with which to address the complex networks of epistemological and biological human exchange.
The new installation work poses the question of how the metaphor of the human biological/informational virus suggest the fragile nature of both human biological and informational boundaries - the impure nature of boundaries that encase the human body and informational systems.
