ISBN10: 1889307238, ISBN13: 9781889307237, [publisher: Re/Search Pubn/monochrom, San Francisco] Softcover First Edition Taking up where the successful first part of our series left off, this anthology stands under the motto "future" -- and the ways in which the present sees itself reflected in it. Maintaining a broadened perspective on technical development and technology while also putting special emphasis on its social implementation, this year's conference focuses on Science and Social Fiction. The genre of the "fantastic" is especially well suited to the investigation of the touchy area of sexuality and pornography: actual and assumed developments are frequently depicted positively and approvingly, but just as often with dystopian admonishment.

Featuring essays and stories by Rudy Rucker, Richard Kadrey, James Tiptree, Jr., Allen Stein, Sharing is Sexy, Jason Brown, Cory Doctorow, Annalee Newitz, Tina Lorenz, Reesa ...

As the official artists' collectiverepresenting Vienna at the Sao Paulo Art Biennial in 2002, the monochrom group-- Johannes Grenzfurthner, Guenther Friesinger, and Daniel Fabry -- invented anartist called Georg Paul Thomann and carried off the exhibition as a veryelaborate prank. The trio, aided by philosopher Thomas Ballhausen, brings thatsame sense of the cutting-edge and the carnivalesque to this collectionexploring erotica, science fiction, and technology. A bracing mix of literaryforms, the book shows why the fantasy genre is especially suited to theinvestigation of the transgressive realms of sexuality and pornography. Herequestions of science, research, and technologization are examined, along withthe complex surrounding urbanism, artificiality, and control (or the loss ofcontrol).
