Spray-on Condom
2006-2008
We are not all created equal. Condoms can be too big. Or too small. For some of us, it is hard to find the perfect fit. This was the challenge the German Institute for Condom Consultancy decided to take on. Their solution was a spray-on latex condom - simply insert penis into an apparatus to coat with melted latex. Then wait 3 minutes for latex to dry.
Testing was halted because the idea of inserting one’s penis into the apparatus scared men. And the three minute hardening time was also an unsolved problem. The project shriveled up. In 2015 an art student re-envisioned the spray-on condom, this time applied with a less frightening spray can.
