Immersion : Porn

“In a film of startling power and unsettling intimacy – produced exclusively for wallpaper.com – video artist and photographer Robbie Cooper shoots back at active porn aficionados lost in ecstatic release and hears how their passion developed. Be aware that this is not easy titillation and some of you may find the footage shocking. But the film does throw up any number of questions about voyeurism and exhibitionism and makes clear the incredible nakedness of the solo sex act.” Wallpaper Magazine.

An interesting insight into how porn is perceived in the modern day. Quite in your face to watch. I felt happily uncomfortable.

Not your typical Patagonia

Dig the photography on the latest Patagonia campaign on their site. Not sure who the photographer/photographers are, but he/they deserve props. The sense of adventure and extremities endured to find waves,  really comes across in this documentary esque series. Clean styles I like.
