"There is making of
silver sex".
Taking bodypainting/messy obsessions to the very
edge, Manon Production from Japan sells a
wide selection of fetish
videos (sample mpeg 1.69MB).
All feature illustrative pictures and detailed, eerie Engrish descriptions (
"we feel admirable and poor at her black smile";
"Midori's body is changing colourfull";
"a little golden powder enters into her eyes"). Results can also evoke a
sculpture, the
theater or
abstract art. Considering the evident misogyny of the whole effort, is it all the more unsettling because the images are sometimes
beautiful (
1,
2)? Is it an attempt to somehow bring
Sorayama's creatures to life? Could the models be
actually enjoying it?
NOT SAFE FOR WORK.

I wanna be your dog. So people are flocking to the opportunity to appear in an "and finally" spot on the news. Nowt so queer as folk, as they say up north.
But just because it gets people's attention, does that mean it's going to convey any useful information? Perhaps if dog-mistreaters were sentenced to being treated like a stray...
