I found it most interesting watching the people in the back

I’ll say the same thing as I did on Boing Boing- I don’t see how this is art. Can you just call anything done intentionally to be out of the ordinary ‘art’?

My question: How do you know when the performance is over?

I hate to admit it, but that was slightly hot! I mean, not only is it a cool little experiment in sound, but it’s a hot chick deep throating!!!

Not being a mic expert, I wonder if the mic was a stock hypercardoid or was in any way set up to be responsive to the feedback resonances set up by the performer’s oral contact/mouth formants (think: talk box).

Some neat variations in resonance seemed to be there, but not so much as to invite the player to play them (in addition to the basic theatrics of simulating oral sex). Maybe it was the room, the PA setup, sound absorbtion by the crowded spectators, or other variables that dampened things.

Gosh! I hate to say it but that was truly boring – even from an Avant-Garde perspective Now if she’d applied some over-driven analog delay effects layered with some tastefully applied bit reduction and wave shaping this could have been interesting.
