It's a good piece. I'm always interested in contemporary conceptual pieces that relate social changes to intellectual changes--it's so much a part of my work to try to imagine how all of this stuff relates--and it's a good piece.
The part that gets me, though, is this.
Mostly, when I ask about loneliness, a deep, sad silence descends on audiences of young men and young women alike. They know they are lonely together, even when conjoined, and that this imagery is a big part of that loneliness.
I'm not sure that's the porn, so much as being a person.
