1000 Non-Human Plateaus: Post-Humanism and Pornography

Summary/Abstract: Stasieńko discusses the post-humanist contexts of pornography, with particular emphasis on pornographic video materials, animation and online porn. Indicating the most important levels on which trans- and posthumanist ideas are present in the sphere of audiovisual pornography, he takes into account both technological and cultural contexts and shows in what ways the conceptual apparatus of trans- and posthumanism can be used to take a critical perspective on the issue. The article touches on various areas of cultural activity and practices in areas such as inter-species pornography, ecoporn (as a manifestation of ecosexuality), digital technologies and algorithms of artificial intelligence in the registration and composition of pornographic materials. Stasieńko also presents examples of post- and transhumanistic elements on the plot level in pornography. He attempts to define non-human pornography in relation to philosophical concepts of eroticism (Bataille, Baudrillard) and the gaze (Lacan, Derrida), as well as in the context of hypererotism and degradation.
