A History Of Porn In 31 Paragraphs (Sort Of)

PORNSTARS

2007_01_03_porntech.jpg

Our esteem'd colleagues at sexblo.gs attended the 23rd Computer Chaos Congress in Berlin last week and took notes on film studies scholar and former porn cinema cashier Tina Lorenz' talk on the history of porn and technology, and while some of the facts she presented are open to debate (for example, saying that 1970's "Mona, the Virgin Nymph" was the "first modern porn" discounts films like "I Am Curious (Yellow)" and the work of Russ Meyer, Ed Wood, and others in the 1960s), it's still an interesting survey of some of the historical antecedents of the modern day smut scene. Finally, a convenient chronology that traces the development of the medium from William Henry Fox Talbot to "Dirt Pipe Milkshakes"! Maybe our grad school student loans are worth paying off after all.
