          Site Description: 
            I have built a porno website offering the possibility of being part 
            of a network of people getting sexual pleasure out of other peopleŐs 
            interaction using a cellular phone that receives in-coming calls to 
            be stimulated with direct vibration of the phone in the vagina and 
            also stimulates the person who wishes to look "voyeur" the sexual 
            activity through a web cam. It mocks the way porno is offered and 
            at the same time explores sexual/private issues in public getting 
            orgasms with the help of thousands of unknown people though internet, 
            as well as exposing the most intimate parts of your life/body in public 
            through the web cam . It is offered TOTALLY FREE you donŐt have to 
            pay and it is available 24h a day . It is complemented though with 
            the "sale" of items related to the activity such as a special ergonomically 
            shaped softed material PUSSYPHONE and special "PUSSYPHONE PANTIES 
            to hold the PUSSYphone for outgoing activities such as parties and 
            social gatherings. | 
         
         
          Site Creator: 
            ELENA BAJO IS AN ARTIST AND DESIGNER, BORN IN SPAIN, LIVING AND WORKING 
            IN NEW YORK. SHE HAS BEEN EXPLORING FOR FOUR YEARS ISSUES OF communication, 
            identity and memory, FOCUSED IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE INDIVIDUAL 
            AND THE COLLECTIVE IN THE NEW ECONOMY USING BODY, SPACE AND CLOTHES 
            AS THE INTERFACE. Her work has been expressed through performances, 
            video, photography and the Net.  
               
            "My work is influenced by several disciplines such as Social Psychology, 
            Theatre, Fashion, Design, Sciences, Internet and the New Digital Technologies/Aesthetics 
            web culture, the everyday Spanish-American experience in the urban 
            context of New York, the contrasting socio-political-cultural-economical 
            circumstances in thirld world countries compared to developed ones 
            and the effect on peopleŐs lives, environmental/human & animal rights 
            issues.  
               
            My performances are based on the work of artists from the sixties 
            and seventies, but I am incorporating new elements such as new technology, 
            popular culture, Internet, and the appropriation from the performance 
            history As an accepted contemporary art vocabulary.  
               
            I can c ite as a major influence Vito Acconci for his time- based 
            performance work that is socially placed, Matthew BarneyŐs work dealing 
            with fashion and performance, Gregg LinŐs approach to architecture 
            trough the new cyber-mediated space, and Nicholas Bourriaud and his 
            "relational aesthetics" where "THE ART PROCESS BECOMES A SPACE FOR 
            CONNECTEDNESS AND THE SOCIAL REALM BECOMES A CONTINUUM FOR INTER-ART-ION 
            . |
