Educazione Techno Sessuale

at Tempio del Futuro Perduto.

A unique insight into Milan’s new sex-positive ritual: Educazione Techno Sessuale. E.T.S. holds its ceremony at Tempio del Futuro Perduto every last Saturday of the month. This is the manifesto, written by its founder, Industrial Romantico. Below, meet the residents, shot in exclusive for NASTY by Marco Giuliano & styled by Anca Macavei.

“EDUCAZIONE TECHNO SESSUALE was born from a simple truth: people are looking for real spaces of freedom. Not theorised. Not sold. Not staged.

Spaces where the body and desire can exist without fear, pressure, or performance.

I’ve worked in the Italian scene for over twenty years, and I never imagined I’d witness a transformation this profound. Not a trend but a concrete need: intimacy, listening, consent, conscious exploration. That’s where it all began.

At first, I didn’t have the tools to build events that were truly sex positive. I had to study, train, sit with professionals, educators, activists. Because living personal experiences is not the same as knowing how to create safe spaces for others.

From that came a collective project. I’m its founder and organiser, but its strength lives in the people who make it possible: a group working to ensure no one feels uncomfortable, that every interaction is wanted, that freedom never becomes invasion.

We don’t produce erotic entertainment.

We don’t commodify the body.

We build educational contexts — contemporary rituals where sexuality returns to being about relationship, responsibility, and presence.

In an era where love is packaging and sex is platform content, creating spaces that are non-commercial, slow, and intentional is a cultural and political act. It means giving desire its dignity back — and pulling it out of the logic of performance.

ETS is not a provocation. It is a response.

To loneliness. To misinformation. To normalised violence.

It is the attempt to build environments where freedom and care can coexist.

And maybe the real revolution is exactly this: learning, again, how to meet each other — without consuming each other.”
