"Foodporn" is a recent genre of pornography that doesn't use human actors, but rather sexualizes images of food to fuel desire. Though still a relatively new category, foodporn has already produced its own pornographic iconography and become a pop cultural buzzword. But the foodporn collected in this volume is the real deal, found in internet forums where users anonymously share their fantasies of drizzling yolks and smothered biscuits and gravy and detail their experiences getting turned on by recipes, ingredients and the textures of food.
For this volume, Cristina Zickert, a graphic designer, has collected a selection of these online dialogues in a celebration of an offbeat, surprisingly hardcore community of sexual desire. This book is one of the first in the new Discovered series, which publishes a selection of student projects in collaboration with universities in Hamburg, Leipzig and Stuttgart.
