Terms of Service Presents: Digital Futures: Safety, Privacy, and Expression Online

Anna Khachiyan

On this episode, we speak with cultural critic and podcaster Anna Khachiyan about the world of alternative media platforms, how parenthood (sometimes) changes what you say on the internet, and being an internet troll. She gives us a cultural lesson in the long-standing beef between pornography and feminism, and offers a brief look behind the curtain of her public persona as a hardened internet edgelord.

Mindy Seu

On this episode, we speak with artist and internet scholar, Mindy Seu, about a feminist history of the internet, and the role of sex workers in the creation of new technologies. She introduces us to the idea of “algorithmic visibility” and discusses the future of gender and sexuality on the internet. We also talk about her whirlwind tour for her book, The Cyberfeminism Index, and she gives us a roster of artists and feminist thinkers who have made an impact on the internet as we know it.

Allie Oops and Lea Lexis

This episode is a conversation with intimacy coordinator and adult industry consultant Allie Oops, and a longtime friend of the AYLO family - performer advocate, director, producer and former performer, Lea Lexis. The episode gives a behind the scenes look at sex on screen, both in the adult industry and Hollywood, including things like consent protocols, nudity riders, and sex scene choreography. Our guests explain the emerging profession of intimacy coordination/ performer advocacy, how it came to be and where it’s going, and how much Hollywood has to learn from the adult industry.

Suze and Holly Randall

They give us a glimpse behind the scenes of two of the most prolific creators in pornography, including how the adult industry has changed over the decades, what it was like to be a female director in the early days of American pornography, and the role censorship has played in adult filmmaking over the years.
