Porno Variations is a series of twelve pieces of sound-art, created by Josh Frank. Each hour-long piece was created by combining the audio from a pornographic film with a piece of found sound. These pieces of sound include recordings of classical music, old opera records, jazz records, cartoon soundtracks, old newsreels, sermons, and infomercials.
The pieces are humorous as well as disturbing. Each piece aims to poke fun at the way popular culture confronts sex. By reducing sexual intercourse to a mechanical and repetitive set of bodily sounds, Porno Variations explores the relationship between art and sexuality.
