Back to Features CARNAL KNOWLEDGE: AUTOEROTICISM Carnal Knowledge is a new kind of television experience from the team of SexTV. Carnal Knowledge commissions artists from a broad range of disciplines - film, video, animation, performance - and invites them to explore the culture of sex from an artistic point of view. The result is a show that moves seamlessly between drama and comedy, animation and documentary, performance and poetry. Our premiere episode, Auto-Eroticism is a provocative look at the sensuality of automobiles, the speed, thrills and fetishism of theroadster, the sexism of car culture and the new breed of 'grrrl' racers challenging the norms. The Sweetie Girls Racing Team. Featuring and profiling such people as maverick filmmakers David Cronenberg, Kenneth Anger, Brooklyn sculptor Vincent Szarek, the ever-edgy Vice Magazine, and the thrill-seeking Sweetie Girl Racers, Carnal Knowledge also features contributions from cutting-edge animators, academics and comics. Carnal Knowledge is scored by the critically acclaimed New York DJ collective Organic Grooves, who have lent their unique "trippy dub-funk" (Time Out New York) vibe to create a vibrant soundtrack for the show. © Copyright 2003 Sex TV *video released with permission* www.sextvthechannel.com www.chumtv.com Back to Features
