Turn Me On explores the history of the vibrator. Through a group of sexpert characters, the documentary uncovers the socially camouflaged sex toy - hidden in the underwear drawer since it was invented over 120 years ago. Turn Me On reveals a social and sexual history that some people would prefer remained a secret. A sex-worker donated 50 vibrators for the composer to sample and manipulate. The resulting melodies are layered in a bed of luscious strings with lead violin performed by Australian Big Brother contestant Mirabai Peart. Winner of Best Tertiary Documentary, ATOM Awards, Melbourne, Australia, 2002. This film was first screened in 2001. |
