A Fuck From Afar

Submitted by bean

Edited by bean

Wednesday night, author and sex educator Violet Blue gave a talk at this month's Dorkbot-SF gathering about teledildonics, the term coined to refer to physical sexual encounters across a web interface. Her presentation included a live hands-on demonstration in which attendees controlled a remote device called the Thrillhammer, which is housed at the New York Museum of Sex. The blog Gism Butter provides an account of the talk and demonstration.

Immediately following the conclusion of her speech, Violet proceeded to manipulate a Thrillhammer in New York's Museum of Sex. But the attempt was marred by technical difficulties ranging from slow camera updates to not having the cursed thing plugged in. This was perhaps the first time in history that a room-full of people had managed to frustrate a woman 3000 miles away.

In the end, however, Net Michelle did manage to get her rocks off as Violet piloted her to orgasm.

The field of teledildonics is just beginning to get off the ground after years of failed attempts, and someday this may represent a seminal moment in its advancement. I, for one, can't wait to see where it goes from here.

I will probably end up with one of these. We've already asked if mutual masturbation via webcam counts as cheating on one's significant other, and I want to explore this with dildonics next.

A whole new way for SGs and their fans to relate. I hope.
