Vito Acconci- Theme Song

This film seems so silly to me, especially knowing who he is as an artist and what he is most famous for. However, I do think that Acconci does a really good job at breaking the boundary between the viewer and himself. To me it seems almost Impressionistic to aknoweldge the viewer in such a heavy-handed way; to be aware of their gaze. He makes it very playful though because as creepy and disturbing he makes us feel as viewers, he does the same thing back. I almost feel very flattered while watching it because he really wants me to like him. I think it is a very interesting way to use the medium of video because it is so personalized, yet because of its replicable characteristics, it is so personal.
