yes of the links you have suggested, very interesting as structural/radical
links in matter of concept of webart, but nothing exclusive.

The question of the eyes of Laura is not discriminant in matter of "matter
of art online" ; it looks to be - of course easy and here is exactly the
most interest of this suggestion, because voyeurism is easy just a you have
the point of view : so the question is to found this point of view - I think
of "A dirty story", the film by Jean Eustache on this subject ; the site we
talk about is a provocation looking at the on-line artistic hyperealistic
polysemies about metavoyeurism... A critical point of view on obscenity asks
obvious contents (so easy).

This site is not my cup of tea but it appears asking any questions regarding
porn and war in an intimate way.
