Come4 is a charity user-generated porn site with 3 objectives:
1. Promote a positive ideal of porn and sexuality that avoids degradation and exploitation.
2. Respect consumers of online sexual content.
3. Support people, ethical causes and non-profit foundations with provoking ideas.
So our project, in a nutshell, goes like this.
We'll build a website where:
a. People can upload, watch, share and rate self-made erotic porn and sexual content
b. Users can interact together, create groups, and win and distribute awards
c. Every video is associated with a charitable cause selected by users
d. The money donated by users or generated from advertisements goes directly to the cause the video is associated with
We think that time has come to critically rethink the relationship between the Internet and sexuality, its global impact, role, form and scope. Our promise is that all Come4 cash flow will always be absolutely transparent, the interface will be smooth and friendly, users’ privacy and data will never be exploited, spam and aggressive advertising will never be used, and any inappropriate content involving violence or physical harm will be immediately removed and reported.
Let’s fight hypocrisy with ethics, Let’s start the new sexual revolution together!
As irony has it this video will be reblogged and seen on social media outlets the world over. Go ahead and participate in the irony and reblog the video on your facebook and twitter accounts.
People look at me like I’m from another planet when I tell them I don’t have social media like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. In the eyes of social media I’m severely outdated, lost and not ‘connected’.
Not partaking in the aforementioned social media makes me an outsider looking in on how hyper frequent society uses its sacred social media. I can’t help but observe the people around me who appear to be consumed and addicted to trying to keep up to speed on their social media pages.
You check your Facebook page while driving. Tweet a message that you ‘just took a shower’. Instagram a photo of your double soy macchiato with extra foam and so it continues ad infinitum.
I have more questions than I do answers with social media. We live in a ridiculously hyper fast pace life where information is exchanged so rapidly that it makes us feel inadequate and drains our attention span. This painting was executed at the GALORE festival (werket.dk/galore/) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The painting is a time-lapse composed of over 9,000 photos and painted over a 5-day period. Enjoy and try to keep up.
