Corpus - Svedka Vodka WebsiteYesterday, I helped my sister move. A lot of her books were in liquor store boxes, and I was particularly struck by the box for Svedka Vodka, which claimed it was the number one vodka of 2033. The box also had a decidedly female robot on it. I wanted to take a picture to put on my blog, but I didn’t have a camera. So today I decided to visit the website to find an image. The website, http://svedka.com is really interesting. Some questions: Why create a sexy female robot to sell vodka? Why the emphasis on celebrity worship and plastic surgery in the promotional materials? How is the robot constructed as sexy? Why does she have some “feminine” traits like breasts, lipstick, long eyelashes, and high heels, but no hair? And most importantly, are they implying that Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter is President?
