Came across this post on bumbumbum.me today, and I had to post it on shiiit aswell.
No Flesh Guaranteed was originally put online in 1997. Since then it has expanded into three different sections as different types of works. All images were originally taken from free web sites that, regularly featured explicit photographs of sexuality.
All the three sites were taken off-line in 2004 due to bandwidth issues. At one point within two days there was over 1.8 million visitors, visiting the site. This crashed the server and left a rather large bill to pay. The mass visits occurred because many links to No Flesh Guaranteed came from various blogs and web sites that showed pron. And even though it feels good to have many passing visitors to the net art work from people who would normally not see such work. The downside is that many visitors were those who wanted to just see raw acts of sexuality, rather than art. More about “No Flesh Guaranteed”.
“No Flesh Guaranteed” was made by Marc Garrett who is currently co-director and co-founder of furtherfield.org along with artist Ruth Catlow.
