Whatever you do, don’t lose that key

Sdtrk: ‘Gabriela (El Guincho remix)’ by Joe Crepúsculo

Whilst performing one of my usual / many / relentless searches for Synthetik information/pictures recently, I uncovered this steampunky gem:

‘Wind-up Gynoid’ is by Scott Miron, a photographer out of Minnesota. Looking over his portfolio, he’s got quite an impressive body of work, but that seems to be the only Gynoid-related pic he’s done to date. Why stop at just one? is my question.

Better post soon, as I’ll be hanging out with a handful of iDollator colleagues this Saturday for another Parliament. I’ll be broke but gleeful!

    Kat –
    Actually, I think Shi-chan would look lovely with an appropriately-sized wind-up key! There’s just something sexily baroque about a lass with a key in her back. 🙂

    I remember years ago, reading a FAQ on the alt.sex.fetish.robots Usenet newsgroup (‘what’s Usenet, grandpa?’), where someone suggested that a fab identifying symbol for technosexuals to have would be a wind-up key worn on a necklace. I think that’s a fine idea!

    ARDO –
    Glad you’re diggin’ the Isness! Give your girls kisses from Sidore-chan and myself! You can have one too, if you like. 😉

    I think this one looks a little synthetic:
    Kayleigh
    The way she is holding her arms is very mannequin/gynoid-esque.

    I just spent the last thirty minutes looking at his pictures…beautiful! It would be great to see more toy girls for sure…and I love the key motif.

    I found this picture somewhere, and unfortunately can’t remember where now…have you ever seen it before?

    That’s the coolest pic I have seen in awhile.

    I too love this blog. You find some of the neatest stuff.

    When is Shi-chan going to get hers up and running?

    Hope you two have a great weekend!

    Good finds, there! Kayleigh looks especially Synthetik; not just because of her arm positioning, but due to the plastic-y sheen of her skin. Rrrowr.
    Unfortunately, I’ve never seen the second picture you’ve linked, but I find it strangely appealing. 😉

    ARDO –
    Always happy to spread the Synthetik love around. 🙂

    DarthSatanus –
    Thanks very much! Personally, I love that you love ‘Shouting etc etc’! It’s like appreciation feedback! 🙂

    The official party line is that ‘Kitten with a Whip!’ will be back online before the sun burns out. I need to see if I can get the graphics that Steph created for what was to be the New Improved version of the site, before the plans went horribly awry. So many projects! 😐

    And all of you have a great week! *raises glass*

    I have a friend whom is a graphic design student. I remember seeing a few gynoid-esque pictures in his portfolio. I’ll have to see if I can get my hands on them.

    That would be fan-tastic. 🙂Hell, if they’re cool enough, I’ll post ’em here…
