Lon did remarkably detailed work for this page, executing my finicky demands for complex scenes and scene-to-scene transitions with great care and fidelity, showing what he’s made of as an artist.  Not that this would come as much of a surprise to any of you who have been following his work.   If any of you haven’t, here’s a chance to jump in.  Issue #3 of Lon’s own series The Perils of Penelope Pornstarr (“The Bodyguard”) has just become available.  (And if you’ve been reading this site for a while, you’ll know what a merry mad-science romp that is!) You can buy it — not just pixels, but a real comic book you can hold in your hands — at Lon’s store on E-bay, along with lots of other cool stuff, including prints and original art from the comic series you’re reading now.  So stop in and pay a visit, won’t you?

The Apsinthion Protocol: Chapter One, Page Three

An academic lecture, at which some are not pleased, and others seem to have their minds on something other than the subject matter.

The Nick Bostrom whom Professor Corwin mentions is a real world figure, by the way, and he actually does argue for at least the possibility that we might be living in a simulation.

Violet Blue makes my day

…and and week and month pretty much with a a wonderful post on Erotic Mad Science.

I’ll resist the tendency to gush and just say this:  if you don’t read Violet Blue’s Open Source Sex blog regularly, you should start.  Now.   I can’t think of a more dedicated chronicler of sex and technology on the web — and that comes from someone who’s spent a lot of time looking for such things.

And kudos to Niceman, whose fantastic anniversary CG work got featured by Violet.
