Event to host an array of great speakers, an exhibit hall, and even a hackathon.
Text appears saying "Sx Tech on Conference 2019"

If you’re interested in how technology is impacting human sexuality, and how it will change even more in the future—and, let’s face it, of course, you are if you’re here at Future of Sex—then book your tickets to Berlin now.

Because on July 1, a special one-day event is being held at The Drivery that looks like it will be one of the sex tech highlights of 2019.

Sex tech for everybody

To say that the Sx Tech Conference has it all would be a serious understatement.

As the event’s site explains, in addition to being able to check out the newest devices and technologies in their exhibit booths, the 500+ attendees will also:

…join leading experts within the Sex- and Fem-Tech industries, who will be discussing the current and future states of various deep-technologies, and their impact on social behaviors and norms.

And by experts they really do mean presentations, chats, panels, and discussions by 45 pretty serious ones, including Global Marketing Director at LELO, Luka Matutinović; Dinorah Hernandez, the Head Director BaDoinkVR [NSFW] Network; Co-Founder of Healthy Pleasure Collective, Maria Fernanda Peraza Godoy; Guile Lindroth, Realbotix/Artificial Intelligence Director and Associate; and many others.

And they’ll be covering some diverse and intriguing subjects as well, all dealing with the big questions of sex tech: VR and AR in sexual healing therapy, new directions in contraceptive technology, and if AI lovers will be an inevitable part of the future, plus a lot more.

Robots, AI, and beyond

Part of this will be reflected in the AI Zone and the Robotic panels. The former will be a special exhibition space for demonstrations of new AI and VR technologies—and a display of how fictional sexbots have changed over the years as well as where they might go in the future.

The latter, the Robotic panel, is all about how they might be used to therapy—as well as having possible negative impacts on sex and culture. Part of this will be a special appearance of the Harmony sexbot from Realbotix.

A hackathon to beat all other hackathons

Last but not least, a big part of the event will be a massive hackathon challenge. Participants will be able to, according to the conference site:

Coalesce leading deep technology solutions, such as AR, VR; Blockchain, AI, Cybersecurity, Data, Sustainability. Along with numerous specialists and enthusiasts of the sex tech industry, we will play together within an experimental space, which will yield new results, new ideas and innovative solutions.

The hackathon concludes with the announcing of the winners—and right after that, there’s a recruiting panel with the sponsors for those interested in getting a shot at working in the sex tech industry.

Tickets are on sale now, with the Base Early Bird Special being €198, the Vision Early Bird (with full access) at €289, and the student rate at €80. Details and other ticket options can be found on the Sx Tech website.

Off to Berlin

So if you’re keen on developments AR, VR, AI, sexbots, or the business side of them all, and where all this might be going in the future then you should be heading to the Sx Tech Conference—see you there!

M. Christian

M.Christian (they/them) loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer they have six novels,12 collections, 100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to their name. Their non-fiction regularly appears in many sites, but they're most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of their erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing [they] can't write about… and brilliantly.”

Reflecting their unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, their stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. Their collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of their stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, their fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with Running Dry, The Very Bloody Marys, Brushes, Painted Doll; and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sex tech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—their ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with their friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, they have lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
