factum/mirage
In factum/mirage the artist makes video performances for Chatroulette, a website that pairs random users for webcam-based conversations and that frequently attracts people seeking cybersex. Instead of participating in a real-time video chat, Chan plays a looped video through the Chatroulette interface and records her unwitting subjects' reactions.
Edited and looped one-off webcam performances for the masturbating population on Chat Roulette, which are screenrecorded as video documentation. Video I and III are not-safe-for-work. Here documentation of post-produced (looped) performance for the camera is fed through ChatRoulette and screen recorded as art or evidence such interaction between "live" video and a stranger using the same livechat service.
