Journalists Cover Microsoft, Using Macs

It’s not an easy time for Microsoft — with Steve Ballmer having to field questions about being “buffoons” and an “evil empire”  at the shareholder’s meeting (.doc) — so when they get together “the world’s most influential technology pundits and online writers” (nb: we weren’t invited) for Mobius to discuss super-secret mobile tech you’d think [...]

Review: Voices Is Today’s Best Thing Ever, Grab It Now While It’s Cheap

New on the App Store is Voices from the clever folk at Tap Tap Tap. You can guess what it does.

Open it up, pick a silly voice. Helium is pretty silly. A microphone appears and the app even clears your throat for you (try it, you’ll see what I mean). Now speak your brains, and [...]

Review: Sony Walkman S540 Series Video MP3 Player

Press releases, you will hardly be surprised to hear, are rarely very interesting. But one arrived in my inbox a couple of weeks ago that made me double-take.
“Sony’s S Series Walkman,” it chattered, “is a serious challenger to the iPod Nano.” Gosh, really? Perhaps the Cult had better have a look at one, then, despite [...]

Porn Company Shoots First Adult Scene on iPhone 3GS

USA/

Porno actress Jaelyn Fox at the Pink Visual booth during the AVN Expo in Las Vegas in 2008.

An adult video company has found a way to get porn onto the iPhone despite Apple’s restrictions on XXX apps.

Pink Visual has shot what it claims to be the first porn scene using an iPhone 3GS.

“We figured this was the next logical step in our ongoing fascination with the iPhone,” said Pink Visual spokeswoman Kim Kysar in a statement. “I think it’s safe to say we are the most ‘iPhone-centric’ porn company around.”

Based in the San Fernando Valley (or Porn Valley), the company’s slogan is: “We innovate, you masturbate.”

The new scene features “popular cougars” Lexi LaMour and Diamond Foxxx, Pink Visual said, and is being published as a webisode on MilfSeeker.com (Definitely NSFW).

The scene was shot by director Matt Morningwood, who said it was easy to shoot with the iPhone. The 3GS gave the scene a certain ‘cinema verite’ and was easier to get into tight spots than a big HD camera.

“If anything, it was too easy to shoot with the iPhone,” Morningwood said. “I’m used to HD cameras, boom mics, and all sorts of other peripherals being part of the deal. The only thing that was difficult was holding the phone steady with two knockout blonde cougars getting naked and going at in front of the camera.”

Pink Visual is considering making iPhone footage a regular feature of its productions.

“The nature of the footage definitely augments the immediacy and realness of the scene,” Kysar said. “Shooting content on the iPhone is a viable option, and something special we can add to the mix now and again.”

    I’ve always said that the adult industry is a major innovator and early adopter of Internet technologies. In his January 2009 memorandum to government heads, President Obama directed agencies to “embrace new technologies” and become more participatory and collaborative. Looks like the porn industry is more obedient to President Obama than federal agencies.

    That’s pretty interesting Blake. I think many people would probably be surprised at how much both business and technology is used in the adult industry. Unlike all those reputable mainstream companies who are declaring bankruptcies, asking for big loans, and passing the cost off to the end user, the adult industry always has to be innovative, watch expenses, monitor market trends, etc to be successful.

    It was fun shooting the scene with the iphone. I’m always up for trying new things out for our productions. We’ve got some other ones in the works so keep an eye out for PinkVisual Productions.

    @Matt Morningwood

    Hello. If the only advantage of shooting a movie with an iPhone is that it gives “the scene a certain ‘cinema verite’ and was easier to get into tight spots than a big HD camera”, then what is the difference between using an iPhone and any other compact video camera?

    What difference would it make to the viewer if you used an iPhone or a Kodak Flip?

    The article states you are “considering making iPhone footage a regular feature of its productions.” Really, why?

    Is someone going to buy your porn because it was filmed on their favourite brand of consumer electronics?

    Are you serious?

    Those guys standing in the background certainly don’t look like they’d
    need to resort to self-amusement, do they?

    Whoa whoa whoa ….
    Diamond Foxxx is in this?
    Not *the* Diamond Foxxx ?
