VEIL MACHINE PRESENTS E-VICTION ARTHOUSE / WHORE GALLERY AND PROTEST PLATFORM AUG 21st 12pm - AUG 22nd 12am

RSVP | DONATE | E-VICTION.NET

DEAREST WH0RES, TRICKS, and CURIOUS ONLOOKERS,

Veil Machine would like to cordially invite you to:

E-VICTION, a digital arthouse wh0re gallery + digital protest platform.

WHEN: August 21, 2020, 12 pm- 12 am EST

WHERE: E-viction.net

COST: free to enter but donations welcome. Have your CashApp and Venmo ready to tip performers for boobs, intrigue, and art. We’ll also have an e-banned shop where you can purchase original art and sex objects.

WHAT: E-Viction will exist as a virtual arthouse / whore gallery for 12-hours before self-destructing. Log on during that time and be seduced by our virtual peepshow where you’ll have intimate encounters with sex workers and artists making art and sex live on cam. Scroll through performers’ ads, shop art and sex objects, learn about legislation that threatens sex workers and free speech online, join raunchy chat rooms, and RESIST digital gentrification. But be sure to tune in before it’s all gone at midnight.

WHY: E-Viction is a direct response to this global health crisis and the need for forms of digital protest as well as space for sex workers to exist online. In the midst of this global health crisis, most sex workers must work, gather, and organize online despite being targets of pervasive surveillance and deplatforming. By challenging SESTA/FOSTA and raising awareness around EARN IT, E-Viction is a protest.

Performers for the event include cherubirl, Darla deVour, Empress Wu, Heidi Darveaux, Isis, JEVX, Laur Elias Taylor, Lilith, Mama Maddox, Minxy Lopez, (m)Other, Squiggles.and.Sluts, Stasia Levone, Vivienne Vai, and Ze Royale.

E-Viction is produced as part of Eyebeam's Rapid Response for a Digital Future and supported by Kink Out Events.
