Squick Or Squee Going Strong, Now On Apple Podcasts!

Remember when I helped announce my good friend Dr. Faustus’s Squick Or Squee Podcast about six weeks ago? “The Squeecast” (for short) is galloping strongly along, offering really fascinating weekly interviews with artists who work in the dark erotic space that Faustus so enjoys. In fact, Dr. Faustus is still eagerly soliciting artists to be interviewed, so if that’s you, please contact him!

An important recent development is that despite the typical walled-garden obstacles, Apple has finally deigned to allow the project to be distributed on their system: Squick Or Squee Podcast on Apple Podcasts. If, like me, you must use IOS devices some of the time, this is a huge upgrade to the convenience of finding/listening to The Squeecast.

The episodes released to date are:

• 001 interview with Shon Richards
• 002 interview with E.M. Beastly
• 003 interview with Silverad0
• 004 interview with Andrew Hunter
• 005 interview with Faustus Crow
• 006 interview with Drake

Follow those links for more information about the interviewees; their particulars are richly linked in the show notes. And by all means, enjoy!

Announcing: Bubbles! (In Eight Languages — And Counting)

I am thrilled to announce that my dear friend Dr. Faustus has released his latest production: a free online twenty-four page full-color mad-scientist comic book entitled Bubbles.

A few words on the motivations behind this mad-science comic are perhaps in order. Dr. Faustus has been depressed for some time that his home country is shrinking in moral stature around the globe. While Dr. Faustus is not in a position to affect high government policy — not, at least, until he completes work on his orbital death ray, which continues to resist final calibration despite all best efforts — he does possess the means to engage in media outreach to the peoples of the world, to demonstrate that not all Americans are ugly Americans. No indeed! Some of us are crazy Americans.

What’s more, since his twisted boyhood, Dr. Faustus has cherished the notion that beyond the barriers of geography and language, he has potential friends around the world who share some of his strange obsessions. For them… for us… for the world! he is launching “Bubbles.”

“Bubbles” is a short satiric mad-science comic written to serve as a Rosetta-stone text for certain themes dear to Dr Faustus’s heart. It deals with adult themes (note that “adult” doesn’t necessarily mean “mature!”) but Dr. Faustus believes you could open any page of it on your browser almost anywhere in the world and not go to jail or get fired. He hopes. No warranties express or implied, contents packed by weight not volume, items may shrink in shipping, do not apply for refund, step right this way to see the world-famous egress!

At launch (that’s now, folks!) there are versions of “Bubbles” available in English, Esperanto (believe it or not, Dr. Faustus has a sentimental utopian side), French, German, Italian, Latin (Dr. Faustus wants to make sure the Pope has the chance to enjoy “Bubbles”), Portuguese, and Spanish. About that Pope: if by chance or design ErosBlog has any readers in the Vatican (unlikely, I know!) I’d consider it a personal favor if you’d print out a color copy of Bubbles and sneak it into the Pope’s daily correspondence. If you could sneak another copy into the Vatican library and conceal it in the stacks somehow, that would be extra awesome.

These first eight languages are just the beginning, because Dr. Faustus genuinely is mad. (This is an OEES: an Official ErosBlog Editorial Stance.) In the process of production, there are versions in Arabic, Bengali, Chinese (both simplified and traditional characters) Farsi, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Punjabi, Russian, Tagalog, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, Urdu, and Vietnamese. Dr. Faustus hopes to roll out another one of these additional translations about every other week or so, though this will depend on the availability of his collaborating artist. Still yet more translations in still yet more languages are possible after they finish working through that impressive list, and Dr. Faustus says he would be happy to hear good-faith recommendations for any language you would like to see. Dr. Faustus reports with regret that he currently has no versions planned in indigenous African languages, and he would welcome suggestions as to such for future translations.

If you want to make your own version of the comic in a language not offered, there is a “blank” version of the comic you can download from the Bubbles site. Dr. Faustus might even be willing to publish it for you!

If you’re qualified and willing to translate this comic into Yiddish or as much as ancient Greek as possible (what would Aristotle have called a tube girl?), Dr. Faustus might have a reasonably generous offer for you; do get in touch with him.

Folks, Bubbles is funny, twisted, and beautifully-drawn. Enjoy!

Making Your Own: The Collected Works

Now that Dr. Faustus has completed (at least, I believe it’s complete) his epic series on making your own porn, I thought it might be worth trying to correct some of the structural flaws in the blogging format, which is that episodic material is presented to new readers in reverse-order and to existing readers it appears over long periods of time. Thus it’s often worth assembling a link package to tie everything up into one neat package. Accordingly, all seven links:

Announcing: Erotic Mad Science

Ladies, hide your daughters! Gentlemen, light your cigars and prepare your instruments! The rest of you lot, listen up!

You all know Faustus, the gentleman who, in seventy-seven ErosBlog posts since February of last year, has dazzled and delighted you (or, possibly in some cases, confused you) with his rich mix of erudition, erotica, and eclairs. (Well, actually we did not get any eclairs. I made that bit up.) From the hedonics of engineered catgirl sex slaves to the fetish aesthetics of The Creature From The Black Lagoon, from the fabled fleshpots of Asia to the thinly-disguised lusts captured in marble and pigment in the echoing museums and churches of Europe, from tentacle sex to sexy robots — I could go on and on, but you get the idea. Incredible breadth and scope, yadda yadda.

It was inevitable — and a consummation devoutly to be wished — that he should eventually start a website of his own. Fear not! He’ll still blog here — regularly I hope — but now he’ll blog as well (and do so much else, besides) at his new site. Can I get a drumroll, please? The site:

Erotic Mad Science

The cliche would be “the title says it all” but of course, when it comes to Dr. Faustus, that would be impossible. His initial post says some of it, though:

Do cheesy science fiction movies do something for you? Would you go (or have you ever gone) to see a midnight performance of Invasion of the Bee Girls? Have you ever shared the monster’s point of view in Creature from the Black Lagoon? Did you find it at least mildly titillating Virginia Bruce was (theoretically) running around without any clothes on in the 1940 film The Invisible Woman? Have you ever thought perhaps that H.P. Lovecraft might even cooler if he weren’t so damn sex-negative? Do you infer a line of artistic influence from Katsushika Hokusai to Toshio Maeda? Do you think it would be sexier to be Victor Frankenstein than Elvis?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, then perhaps this site is for you.

Erotic Mad Science is still new, but it’s already got plenty to keep you busy. There’s a manifesto (you knew there had to be). There are posts about absinthe, British radio comedy, and the eroticism of water (this last illustrated in part with a stunningly erotic 20th-century re-imagination of The Birth Of Venus):

But here’s the best part: all of these are related — in ways Faustus alone can explain — to what is sure to be the crown jewelry of Erotic Mad Science. I refer to a body of work commencing with The Apsinthion Protocol, which according to Dr. Faustus “is the first of seven long stories in my Gnosis College mad science series.” Written as screenplays, these Gnosis College stories (I am privileged to have read some, but not yet all, of them, though only the first appears — yet — on Erotic Mad Science) are…

Fuck it. I’m not even going to try to describe them. Faustus has a whole website for that project, let him do the heavy lifting. It will probably take him awhile, so there’s much to look forward to.

Meanwhile, though, I quote from A Brief Introduction to Gnosis College, just to whet your pervy appetites:

The Gnosis campus is bordered by another institution of higher education, St. Mary Magdalene College, a Catholic women’s college jokingly referred to as the Virgin Vault by some Gnosis people. SMMC is run by an order of nuns who keep alive the otherwise moribund tradition of colleges functioning in loco parentis toward their students. It is thus a much-favored school for families with traditional values and problematical daughters. The gates are locked tightly every night at nine. SMMC doesn’t appear in The Apsinthion Protocol, but will in a forthcoming script, Progress in Research.

On the outskirts of Pleasant Prairie we find another institution, a juvenile detention facility called the State Home for Wayward Girls, which is pretty much what it sounds like. (The state has given it another, nicer, name which no one can readily recall.) This place too will appear in a future script, most prominently in Invisible Girl, Heroine.

Add it to your bookmarks, people; this may take awhile.
