This work was installed in two seperate rooms. One room contained two videos playing simultaneously.

Video 1: In this video I'm pointing a large knife into my closed eye lid whilst lip-syncing to a Noam Chomsky soundbite from an Italian trip-hop band, Blackera.

Video 2: Naked from the waist up and wearing an appropriated medieval crown designed to reveal just my face, I sat in my studio reading the back covers of some cheap heterosexual porno films. I started to masturbate until climax. Upon climax I spewed fake blood. It was an accident that the camera recorded the action sideways. Stylistically, it was an intention to keep the aesthetics of the video deliberately unsophisticated, amateurish, and somewhat low budget.

In the second room, which was starkly lit with bare flurorescent lighting, hung the digital image of me poking a knife over my closed eye lid. On a nearby wall, in the same room, hung a laminated photocopied Buddhist passage.
