Purpose: to entertain and inform attendees of the 1993 MTV Video Music Awards. What have sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll become in the ’90s? This book answers that question with latex, fruit juice, and rock ’n’ roll. It also raises questions about our society and the line we draw between creativity and censorship, or, in the words of the right, sin versus a puritanical society. Besides creative excellence, this project is special in that it was hand-separated by the artist, a refreshing thought in the day and age of the computer.
