The Future of Sex and Tech - TALK

By Johannes Grenzfurthner, founder of Arse Elektronika

Humans are a sexual as well as tool-using species. The remarkable diversity of human behavior shapes and is shaped by sex and technology.

As the founder of Arse Elektronika, I have always been fascinated by the intersection of sexuality and technology.

Humans are a sexual as well as tool-using species, and the remarkable diversity of human behavior shapes and is shaped by sex and technology.

However, most discussions about this topic tend to make certain assumptions about the culture, class, and race of the participants.

Technologically-represented sex and porn tend to be male-centric, heterocentric, ageist, and ableist.

Who gets left out of this, and what effects does it have?

How can we create more inclusive techno-sensual spaces that center marginalized perspectives and experiences?

These are some of the questions we will explore in this talk.

We will also examine how the exponential growth in technology is permeating into the realm of sex.

What are the games of the teledildonic age?

How can sex tech change the political landscape of tomorrow?

By engaging in this dialogue, we can shape a future of sex that is not only responsible and exciting but also inclusive and just.

Ultimately, this talk will challenge us to think critically about the future of sex and how we can create a more equitable and diverse techno-sexual landscape.

We will explore new possibilities for sexual expression and intimacy that center marginalized perspectives and experiences, while also considering the ethical and social implications of these developments.

By doing so, we can create a future of sex that is both technologically advanced and socially just.
