Arse Elektronika 2014 on Boing Boing

Cory Doctorow featured Arse Elektronika 2014!

The theme this year is “trans*.*” and the event features “Talks, machines, games, workshops and performances;” runs from Oct 2-5 at San Francisco’s Chez Poulet (3359 Cesar Chavez St).

Trans is a Latin noun or prefix, meaning “across”, “beyond” or “on the opposite side”. What does that mean for sex and technology?

Transitions, translations, transgressions, transistors & transducers, transactions, transmission (specifically sexually transmitted infections), transdermal?

Brief comment: opening night is at Chez Poulet, the other events are at the Center for Sex and Culture and Noisebridge (see schedule).
