A guy named Jaime del Val is projecting something quite unexpected on the buildings of Madrid, his cock. The guy rigged a complex system of projectors, cameras, and lights to project a massive video of his cock live. One is inclined to call bullshit on this piece of performance art, but it is exactly this kind of craziness that makes it an impressive endeavor.
Granted he may not be doing the community a service with this piece, but it does have an edgy, futuristic feel to what he is trying to say. He calls his apparatus used in conjunction with the human form an example of "Pangender Cyborgs." He claims to be protesting various things such as homophobia, surveillance, control, and consumer society. I'm not sure if I'm buying his various protests, but it sure is freaky. I thought this bit of techno-performance art to be relevant to the upcoming exhibition of Techsuality.
