Arse Elektronika 2007

Arse Elektronika 2007 is a conference being organized by monochrom about pornography and technological innovation. Or should we say pr0nnovation? The event takes place October 5-7 at Kink.com’s Porn Palace in San Francisco and they have recently announced the speakers, performers and conference schedule.

From the depiction of a vulva in a cave painting to the newest internet porno, technology and sexuality have always been closely linked. No one can predict what the future will bring, but history indicates that sex will continue to play an essential role in technological development. The porno effect accompanies every new technological development. Is it going too far to assume that research in nanotechnology and genetic engineering will be influenced by our sexual needs? The surgical modification of sexual organs is no longer something very unusual. The question is not whether these technologies alter humanity, but how they do so.
