The work is part of an ongoing project addressing the intersectionality of responses to female characters in video games; formally speaking, the work is presented as an audio-visual poem, accompanied by voice over. According to Janković, this work is meant as a response to found footage material of the character Christie from the popular ﬁghting game series "Dead or Alive" (1996 – ongoing). Moreover, the examination of the role of female characters in "Outsourcing (My Desires to Avatars)" is part of a larger project titled "The identity quest series," in which the artist addresses a multiplicity of responses to female video game characters, following engagement in interviews with queer people within the gaming industry and exploring their own views on gender in game design.
