Typing the word "sex" in the Google search engine appear 10.320.000 results. This is a reflection of the boom of the pornography thanks to the Internet web sites, the erotic festivals, hot lines, webcams and live sex shows. This demonstrates the large number of people who practice solo sex, either over the Internet, television or visiting a Sex Shop. Therefore, if the practice of masturbation is changing and in some way liberating it, why not to plan an idea in tune with these new ways to practice so intimate act?
That's why I raised the idea of creating Coolsex, an element that combines a very primitive act with the new technologies. Coolsex is a single use and non reusable piece of cellulose which gives us comfort, hygiene and discretion that the era of cybersex requires.
Because of its originality and transgression, and in its graphic image, Coolsex is not just a piece of cellulose that finish in the trash just after masturbation. This can be used as a component of marketing or in businesses or events related to sex (festivals erotic, as a gift to subscribe to a magazine, as a ticket of entry into the peepshow, as a gift for signing up for a web of erotic content). At he same time can be distributed in the gift stores and design shops.
Coolsex was introduced in 2001 in the OFFF exhibition (Online Flash Film Festival) and since that has been part in other exhibitions as Crossed-Creuats-Cruzados in the CCCB, Offjects, Baba and design Intacto.
Since 2006 is part of the permanent fund of the Museum of Decorative Arts in Barcelona.
