An inspired look at connection and attraction in the digital era. Sex researcher Laura Duncan and Future Sex columnist Kelly Bourdet explore the world of sexual robotics, teledildonics, pornography, sex in sci-fi, and carnal technology.
Kelly Bourdet writes about the philosophy of technology as it applies to sex, relationships, and living online, and is author of the Future Sex column on Motherboard/VICE. She lives in Brooklyn. Laura G. Duncan is a sexual health researcher currently studying issues of stigma within healthcare as well as the intersections of technology, sexuality and the body. She has taught sexual health education in a variety of academic, non-profit and community venues and currently serves as a full-spectrum doula. She is, disappointingly, not a robot.
