counter Paul Morris / Treasure Island: All in a day's work...

All in a day's work...

The latest on the legal front at Treasure Island: In three completely unrelated cases, Paul is currently being sued by a Southern California drag queen, a major Las Vegas casino and a model from a video we're about to release (he happens to be a born-again Christian and wants to stop the release of the video).
Here's a shot of San Francisco's Embarcadero Center, where Paul's attorneys burn the midnight oil trying to save the pornographer's ass.

On a happier--or at least more elevated--note, a Professor from a major US University recently read a paper about Paul's work at an academic conference in Berlin.

The paper uses ideas from Hegel, Lacan and Deleuze (who?) to discuss Paul's porn videos, how (and why) he makes them, and why they're culturally important.
I couldn't understand a word of it.
And I thought I was going to be making porn...

Hey there! I'd love to know the details or text of the paper the US University Professor read at the conference in Berlin. I used Jacques Lacan's theories to interpret symbolic meaning in many films while in college and am very curious to read how his theories have been applied to Treasure Island porn. Any links available? Thanks in advance!!

I hope it isn't the one we filmed with Dawson at IML... I really want my um.. "body of work" released. Screw the born again Christian. He signed a release. He knew what he was getting into. We all did...
