Build Your Dream Sex Machine

"QDot is a robotics engineer who works in a mainstream lab, which is one reason he keeps his online identity completely separate from his offline life. His fiance supports his extracurricular activities; his boss might not be as understanding.

"His fascination with teledildonics -- sex toys that lovers can control for one another over the internet, whether they're in the same room, the same house, or 3,000 miles apart -- grew out of his interest in video games.

"'It's about taking the environment of an old game, one you can't recode or add to, and making it more immersive using force-feedback signals,' he says."

I'm telling you: Stuff like this is going to play a not-inconsiderable role in the advancement and eventual mainstreaming of human-like robots. So while I have no personal interest in remote sex, I can't help but be interested in the potential of this unlikely-seeming fusion of electronics and eroticism.

I meet this girl today, well, anyway the problems with the sex robots as I see it, is as of yet there is no way to replicate the biological as well as the trans dimensional energy fields we humans have surrounding our bodies.

It seems half the experience of having sex is the intermingling of, and the resonance that develops between the linked wave forms that two people share. And a robot just dosent has this, to a psi sensitive type such as you and I it would be like having sex with the toaster!
This field effect is one of the reasons us philosophy types are so leery of getting into a relationship, our wave form matrix is so out of tune with the normal people’s grid pattern that it is a big disruption of our natural energy pattern to have sex with a regular Jane. You find your self eating at pizza hut or some other hideous chainraunt, then it’s a night of Friends reruns.
Of course if you can find a weird lil Goth girl with a better fitting wave blueprint, one that meshes with your strange template, she is liable to max out your credit cards, slash her wrists on your new couch, and invite her biker boy friend over for rough bisexual lovemaking.

Hey a big hats off to you for linking to my new blog, Mac! You rock. I just hope the fleeting one can up to your high standards of outer limits weirdness.

Does the field affect anything when you jerk off? Does the wave topography differ between hand and genitals? If so, does this mean there are people who are sexually incompatible with themselves?

When you jerk off with your eyes closed imagining the girl next door your field is joined with hers in a singularity worm hole effect, and all of a sudden she feels the need to take a shower and have a cigarette.
When you pound the pud (P.O.P.) while viewing inter net porn, your energy field is sucked in to the maw of the trans dimensional porn web master spider fiend, and your life force energy is stolen from you.
For a great essay on how the trans dimensionals use modern porn as an energy wave field psi leach mechanism see;

DH Lawrences book, Studies in Classic American Literature

He was a hyper sensitive individual very attuned to the life force.

Also his chapter on Poe is the best description I have read of how certain women have this strange ability to capture a mans imagination and suck it dry!
