Kasey Warner Anchors NY Fest-Debuted Short 'The Porn Selector'

NEW YORK—AVN Award-nominated performer Kasey Warner portrays the central character of "The Porn Selector," a short from French director Lou Fauroux that made its world premiere earlier this month at the New Directors/New Films festival presented by New York's Museum of Modern Art and film culture nonprofit Film at Lincoln Center. "The Porn Selector" is the first installment of a larger project by Fauroux called The Internet Collapse, which depicts people in various walks of life preparing for a coming end to the internet. According to press notes, "In each volume, the story is woven around a protagonist who organizes and plans his or her post-internet life, as the entropic end of the WWW looms ever larter." In this opening segment, the notes detail: "Kasey is a former porn star who has transitioned into a successful adult film producer. She sustains her livelihood through her website, which offers a wide range of adult content accessible through monthly payments. Since the announcement of the end of the internet, she has been devastated but has found a solution that could help her survive int he post-internet era. "By scouring vast amounts of online sexually explicit images, she selects and downloads pornographic content, including images and videos. She then prints and burns them onto DVDs, tapes, engravings, and other sexual objects. When the internet finally collapses, she aims to have a stronghold on the market and sell her valuable products." "The Porn Selector" was screened as part of the New Directors/New Films Shorts Program on April 8 at the Museum of Modern Art and on April 10 at Lincoln Center. "Lou Fauroux is an unbelievably talented multi-media artist who uses irony and humor in her art to evoke feelings that are often hard to articulate," Warner told AVN. "Working with a director who accepts sex work as a core tenant of the human socio-economy and is able to move past the sensationalism of sex itself to open new spaces for conversation and growth is incredible, and especially exciting when being featured at such a venerable art institution." The Internet Collapse is itself part of a broader multidisciplinary project by Fauroux entitled WhatRemains, which incorporates video, sound, sculpture, 3D animation, virtual reality and more in exploration of one central theme—that is, as press materials explain, "the ethical issues and consequences of the omnipresence of the internet and artifical intelligences within the human experience."  Learn more about Lou Fauroux here.
