PLAY ME: interactive sonification of sexual arousal in long-distance relationships

AbstractMusic is the best medium for expressing emotions and arousal nonverbally. PLAY ME is a gender-neutral Arduino-based system that allows partners in a long-distance relationship to perceive each other’s sexual arousal and to provide stimulation of erogenous zones using music. PLAY ME’s main parts are a tiny pneumatic anal probe connected to a pressure sensor and a bodysuit with integrated vibrators. Whenever both partners wear these devices, a real-time exchange of emotions and corporeal feelings can be enabled. Three sensors capture genital sexual arousal and transform it into music: a pulse sensor, a sensor for galvanic skin response and a pneumatic anal pressure probe. The anal probe measures pelvic tensions and contractions. Its signal controls the main voice. Higher arousal leads to stronger pelvic muscle tensions. Measured data are mapped to pitch, so the level of sexual arousal is audible in a comprehensive way, and orgasms can be clearly identified by regular pulsating sounds. The pulse sensor and the skin response sensor are the driving rhythm and drone frequency. The vibrators in the bodysuit are controlled by sound that is generated by the partner using any audio source. Mixing the sounds generated by the sensors and the instrument leads to interactive music that can enhance erotic feelings and sexual arousal in the way of biofeedback. This article describes the background and construction of the PLAY ME system and shows diagrams of sensor values recorded during sexual stimulation. After a discussion of the results, there is an outlook toward further development.

“…Disruption of 'social' or 'interpersonal' touch [Huisman, (2017), pp.397-399] is currently the focus of research related to the design of remote and prosthetic interfaces. Until quite recently, research and design has focussed on information processing or 'message passing' (Figure 1) of touch signals, using haptic and kinetic devices for touch experience such as pressure, movement, vibration, skin stretch and warmth; through thermal signals (Willemse, 2018), intimate sexually touching (Gomes and Wu, 2017;Solon, 2014, Kiiroo, https://www.kiiroo.com/), stroking a hand (Eichhorn et al, 2008) or an arm (Huisman et al, 2016), hand holding (Gooch and Watts, 2012), emotion transmitting (Bailenson et al, 2007), hugging (Rosella and Genz, 2006), brain computer interfaces (Lupu, 2018). Such research and design primarily focus on imitation of tactile qualities, efficiency, immediacy, categorisation, automatisation and user experience.…”

Can a multi-sensory model of disruption be designed for shared social touch in public space of merging realities? This paper presents a multi-sensory model for disruption design for shared social touch experience in public space of merging realities. This model is based on analysis of three different artistic orchestrations performed in the public space across the world. In these orchestrations participants' intimate and sensorial experience of social touch is purposefully disrupted and re-orchestrated. These orchestrations are designed to enable participants to feel, see, hear and share a disrupted touch experience, in the social context of the public space. The model provides as frame of reference for designing an experience of shared social touch, for scientists, designers and artists.
