Class notes ...

Camgirls
- live camgirls
- 3 types, whore, girl, artist
- intersection of pornography + escort
- appeal ... authenticity, customers like no makeup, tank top + shorts, bedroom culture, live interaction
- fantasy vs reality, public vs private
- illusion of authenticity ... theatrical authenticity
- live, on screen, in opposition to curated experience a la social media
- private information of otherwise remote strangers
- improv, unplanned, on the spot


Glitch art
- glitch as process ... an experience, not an aesthetic
- tactful exploration of systems
- glitch... negative experience, accident as a thing of beauty
> similar to appeal of camgirls
- fleeting / personal


- (work) suffer from planned obsolesce of people, things they make / sell
- system of production vs system of reception
