It is our pleasure and privilege to present you
with the first Arse Elektronika Anthology: "pr0nnovation?"
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.
Is it going too far to assume that research in
nanotechnology and genetic engineering will be
influenced by our sexual needs? The question is
not whether these technologies alter humanity, but how they do so.
Edited by Johannes Grenzfurthner, Günther Friesinger, Daniel Fabry.
