AVN Online to Partner with Sex in Video Games Conference as the Premier Media Sponsor
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SAN FRANCISCO, California - April 17, 2006 -
AVN Online, the trade journal for the future of the adult
digital media, has been announced as the Premier Media
Sponsor for the June 8-9 Sex in Video Games Conference at the
Lodge at Union Square in San Francisco, California.
The Sex in Video Games Conference is the first of its kind,
bringing together video game developers and the adult
industry. It features two days of panel discussions, keynotes
from Wired Sex Drive columnist Regina Lynn and game designer
Sheri Graner Ray, a machinima art show, and lectures that
focus on the Adult Only game genre. The technological
challenges of design, the future of technology, as well as
the ways to approach various audiences will all be discussed
at the conference. This conference will be at the apex of
both the video game and the adult entertainment
industries.
According to Cynthia Freese, CEO of Evergreen Events,
"Developers incorporating sexual content into games face a
multitude of hurdles, from legal and distribution barriers to
incorporating an understanding of human sexuality into game
design. We face these issues head-on with this conference,
and are thrilled to have AVN Online as our Premier Media
Sponsor. The topics discussed at this conference will be
invaluable to the readership of AVN Online."
"Bringing video games and the adult world together is a
natural progression. Adult entertainment is becoming
mainstream and other industries are recognizing its
potential," says AVN Online senior editor MJ McMahon. "We're
glad to help facilitate this merging of industries and to be
a part of this new and exciting event."
