I'm well aware that some of what we do on our own website can be considered pornographic.
I would never defend shoving it in anyone's face who didn't want it. We are highly conscious of age-appropriateness as regards content.
I also support the validity of those with opinions who oppose what I do.
As for commercial gain - the costs of the site far outweigh any small amount of "income" it has ever produced - this is publically documented. The site doesn't constitute commercial interest or mass media by any definition of the terms.
Personally, as an artist, I have made public statements - quoted in the Village Voice, for example - stating my total opposition to public funding for the arts. The simple fact is that my ideas are neither doctrinaire nor self-serving as is often assumed to be case - and is indeed often the case - with other artists. I do not take the positions commonly associated with my colleagues in the arts.
