- Here Come the Ecosexuals!
This summer we’ll be preparing for our Here Come the Ecosexuals! – Summer Tour, and taking our show out on the road, and taking it out doors. “Here Come the Ecosexuals!” will be a participatory “pop-up” performance project staged in various sites throughout California-rural nature sites, arts centers, and community colleges – using performance practice to germinate alternative visions about ecological futures. Encouraging audiences to develop a sustainable, more pleasurable and less destructive relationship with the Earth, it will provide new, alternative approaches to current thinking about global ecological crises, environmental art, and activism. Its going to be a hella lotta fun too. more info »

- LOVE ART LABORATORY
Collaborator, Annie Sprinkle
The Art Love Laboratory is where my seven years of love as art collaboration with Annie Sprinkle occurred and the website is now the archive of this project. We performed our piece Seven Years of Love as Art” as a satellite project to Linda Montano’s piece “Seven Years of Life as Art,” As part of our seven-year project we planned to have seven weddings in seven different sites. Each wedding would be based on a different chakra and each year we explored the specific qualities and attributes of that chakra in our lives. Instead we had fifteen weddings and are still counting. loveartlab.org

- BAGGED
Collaborator, Annie Sprinkle
During Katy Bell’s “Center of Attention” art extravaganza, Annie Sprinkle and I performed inside a silver bag that we constructed for this event. While the other performance pieces were of a bacchanalian nature featuring naked acts of kinky pleasure, we made love in the bag. It was a radical departure from the exhibitionistic atmosphere of the rest of this event. As such, we raised the question of what is the next step beyond explicit sexual display in performance art.
- MAYBE BABY
With Annie Sprinkle and Tina Takemoto
Maybe Baby With Annie Sprinkle and Tina Takemoto I did six months of an artificial insemination process as performance art. The first piece in this series was “Maybe Baby” in which I read 10 sperm donor descriptions and asked a volunteer to embody each one. Then, to the tune of Peaches, the 10 volunteers participated in a sperm dance off. I inseminated using the donor embodied by the winning dancing sperm. Each insemination performance has taken a different form.

With Tina Takemoto
Tina Takamoto asked me to collaborate with her in this Lusty Duster piece for the Flea Market Show in Berkeley, CA. Jennifer Parker organized this show as part of a series of outside(r) exhibitions. Tina and I dusted all of the flea market vendors’ wares for free. This led to a series of delightful conversations with the sellers and the buyers. We left the flea market cleaner than we found it and increased our art karma in the process.
