[Space and Place] Ubicomp: no expansion of the smut industry?

fredshouse questions the fact that the very field of Ubiquitous Computing have no sex-related applications…

Museum guides, elder care, memory prosthetics and ornithology, for sure. But how about teledildonics?

- Maybe ubicomp isn’t the right kind of medium…
- Maybe it’s too early. There are almost no commercial ubi-products, and thus no real channel exists yet for delivering the goods and taking money in return
- maybe we haven’t reached the right level of sophistication in our thinking about ubicomp’s potential imprint on the sensual fabric of society.
