2008 SXSW Interactive Festival


Cory Silverberg has asked me to be on a panel at the 2008 SXSW Interactive Festival. It's called "The Future of Sex in Interactive Narrative": "As audiences, technologies, and businesses evolve, interactive sex narratives continue to take their lead from some of the worst traits in pornography, instead of taking the best from the bizarre and complicated range of human sexual experience. From emergent sex in MMORPGs to virtual fembots and art-core sex blogs, we will look at the highs and lows of interactive sex narratives and suggest future directions where sex on line is worth the ride." Vote.
