"Together with the demise of the secret, this hyper-visibility is our fatal condition. If everything starts and ends with the visual - which is the most degraded form of existence - the point remains to make such extreme disenchantment an object of sidereal contemplation and of perverse desire. So why not propose a reverse hypothesis, opposed to voyeurism and collective retardation? Why not suggest that what we all want is just to gain the sense that there is nothing to see, that we'll never get the final clue? And this only to verifyΒ a contrarioΒ the ultimate power of seduction, tracked down unto death in the succession of lifted veils. There is no principle of reality nor of pleasure. There is only a finite principle of reconciliation and an infinite principle of Evil and Seduction." ~ Baudrillard, Dust Breeding & Fatal Strategies

Never said it was pornographic or vulgar. But there is voyeurism and seduction at play. The point is that seduction is infinite, and also that, in our age, where everything is made excessively visible, nothing remains to be seen. That this picture is no longer unique nor revealing in any way.

I was struck by her face...something in her expression reminded me of the archaic smile.
