A video essay that explores our bodily engagement with online media in a visceral collage of found footage.

synopsis

Skin Pleasure is a video essay that investigates the different functions of the skin -- as a protective barrier, a sensory organ, a producer of meaning and as a surface that wants to (be) touch(ed) -- in relation to the reception of internet pornography. Interweaving found footage, from amateur porn to ASMR videos and other web-based body genres, with close-ups of the filmmakers' bodies, the result is a highly reflective and deeply personal exploration of our bodily engagement with online media.
