How Sex Changed the Internet and the Internet Changed Sex: An Unexpected History

Recording: How Sex Changed the Internet and the Internet Changed Sex: An Unexpected History, Date TBA

From the moment there was an “online,” there was sex online. In fact, virtually every significant development that defines the Internet we know and love (and hate) today came out the meeting of sexuality and technology.

In her new book, Samantha Cole covers everything from Jennicam (remember her?) to deepfakes to the promise that VR spaces like the metaverse hold for the future of human sexual interactions. Join her for a conversation about human nature and sex during the digital gold rush of the last 50 years. Book signing to follow.
