Robotica

by Kal Cobalt

Five erotic stories of robot-human relations, exploring the future of humanity, sex, and desire. In Cobalt's futures, artificial intelligences can have very real emotions, and humans can be just as confused, turned on by, and obsessed with their robot lovers as they are by any others. The stories have a delicious homoerotic edge even as they question what gender means to a robot mind. Or heart. Includes the Charlie The Sex Drive Agrathia's Freedom Star Fucker Survival-Compatible Regular readers of circlet will remember Kal Cobalt as the author of the essay "10 Things You Always Wanted to Know About Robot Sex (But Were Afraid to Ask)" and the one on Asimov's "Law's of Robotics vs. BDSM". K.C. also has stories in the recently released Wired Hard 4, as well as Best Fantastic Erotica, Boys In Heat, Best Gay Romance, Toward 2012, and elsewhere.

About the author

Kal Cobalt is a technophile, concertgoer, and foodie based in Portland, Oregon. K.C.'s first book, ROBOTICA (Circlet Press), is a collection of short stories about robot sexuality, and along with with the essay “10 Things You Always Wanted To Know About Robot Sex (But Were Afraid To Ask),” causes people to ask very strange questions about K.C.'s sex life.

K.C. also writes nonfiction about sex, tech, and food for Sexis Magazine and the kalcobalt.com blog in between tea refills, one-person bedroom raves, and muse wrestling matches.

While the free content at kalcobalt.com grows slowly due to the erratic on-duty hours of K.C.'s HTML-encoding robot, the odds are good that you might spot K.C.'s bright red mohawk in the Pacific Northwest's fine espresso-pulling establishments, at the rail for concerts where synthesizers are involved, or underneath sleeping cats.
