If you're a certain kind of high-tech fetishist, your options are pretty limited when it comes to indulging your hot robot love fantasies: either you can grab a willing partner or two and go the whole cosplay route, or limit your explorations to comic art or written erotica (and where's the fun in that?) Fortunately, artist and filmmaker Michael Sullivan has come to the rescue with his work-in-progress "Sex Life Of Robots", which is ...well, pretty much exactly what it sounds like: "It's supposed to be like a silent robot porno movie from another planet."
We'd describe it as what might happen if the Brothers Quay directed a Vivid flick, filtered through equal parts steampunk and Spanish Fly—and the fact that Sullivan modeled one of his robot creations on Goddess Debbie Harry (who he photographed for underground magazines back in the 70s) is a nice bonus for us pop culture junkies too. You'll never consider the phrase "soulless, mechanical fucking" in quite the same way again.
