open source pornographic perfection

Capitalist "progress" destroys the imagination through a frenzy of the
visible. What we see we no longer need to imagine. A a famous zero from
the popsicle academy was once moved to write that every time a man had an
erection it was a triumph of the imagination. Power to the imagination,
and to sex - for they are one and the same thing. Pornographers of the
world close your eyes. You have nothing to lose but your bodily fluids! It

In reality, indie porn is just like indie pop. It pretends to be different from the industry, but works with the same business model.

auf jeden fall ist das indie angebot wohl eher als marktnischenbedienung zu verstehen als eine erschaffung eines neuen/anderen frauenbildes oder gar eine emanzipation der alternativen gegenueber dem mainstream. (das ist ja wohl die romantisierendste idee des letzten jahrhunderts, aber wir sind past that oder?)
