“¿Quieres ser mi príncipe?” es un proyecto de carácter socio- artístico, con la herramienta de la indagación como eje central para poder desarrollar, como pieza final, una documentación en formato Web, que contenga un libro digital y imágenes del proyecto. La motivación que hace nacer el proyecto, surge del interés por los contenidos de los anuncios de contactos en la Red dirigidos hacia el público homosexual masculino: un análisis del territorio, de los individuos, de las formas de presentarse y de un sinfín de cuestiones que me llevaban a poder descifrar como el homosexual se plasma en la Red para encontrar lo que desea de la forma más rápida. Mediante un video-anuncio de presentación en la sección chico busca chico de www.loquo.com y la obtención de 512 respuestas en 7 días, una cuidadosa selección de 4 sujetos, y una documentación muy detallada sobre los sucesos, me decido a realizar una Web que contenga las citas con cada uno de estos individuos. El usuario puede votar y decidir quien prefiere que sea el príncipe del autor para ganar una cita con él. Es el usuario el que tiene la responsabilidad de poder decidir sobre la vida del autor y sobre la del sujeto. Al final del proyecto, como resultado, una Web que contiene un libro en formato digital donde se narran todas las experiencias de los sujetos y el autor desde un punto de vista investigativo y material documentativo en formato vídeo sobre la cita final. La pretensión principal del trabajo es poder acotar la construcción del individuo homosexual virtual, a menudo surgido por un ostracismo comunicativo reflejado en las jerarquías comunitarias basadas en el hombre heterosexual, blanco y occidental. Desde un trabajo documentativo se propone una lectura experiencial sobre el proceso de trabajo, del descubrimiento del yo de una forma postadolescente, y la cimentación de las sociedades contemporáneas cercanas a nosotros. Después de investigar desde paradigmas virtuales nacidos desde los propios usuarios, como anuncios o peticiones desde foros o chats, se descubre el paralelismo no solo de la red a el mundo cotidiano, sino los numerosos paralelismos que existen desde una entidad bien organizada por una libertad fingida como es la comunidad gay, y la sociedad en general en la que habitamos. Cabe estudiar estos rasgos sociales que narran de alguna manera formas de vida alternativas, hasta ahora rechazadas o anónimas debido a la linealidad socio cultural de una estructura política bien asentada, pero que actualmente de institucionalizan y cambian de registro.

Infiltrating videoclubs.The Zulú and Clear and Present Danger trailers are part of Nascimento/Lovera's edits-inserts video project. By inserting their re-edited versions of commercial films in rental video chain stores, inter-city buses, public television and the black market, they are able to anonymously maximize the distribution of their work, while also questioning the symbolic mechanisms of power which are no longer located in traditional centers of cultural production, but spread throughout everywhere.
Between 1877 and 1930, governments and private entrepreneurs organized in several European and American cities real Human Zoos, in which men and women of other races and cultures were exhibited in cardboard sets, separated by moats and fences, suffering a humiliating climate and conditions. They are the possessions of the Empire. The success is enormous, the public crowds to see face to face the "other" turned into an object.
