According to a report last year, the UK scientists were actually planning to become the first in the world to produce unlimited amounts of synthetic human blood from embryonic stem cells for emergency infection-free transfusions.

My intention for this short piece was to create a visual material that would make even 5-year-olds understand the fundamental concept of blood fetishism. I hope I accomplished my goal.

Blood Fetishism on Prezi

I have created a visual material for my upcoming presentation and I am quite psyched by the outcome.  The program that I used here is called Prezi, a free online editing tool which  zooms and rotates by itself. I should warn you first though, it was not as simple as it looks to maneuver as I no longer can count how many sleepless nights I had to spent with this guy. Now that I have finally mastered it (sort of) let me show you its sweet moves! It even lets you embed You Tube videos and upload  Flash animations.  Unfortunately, it does not have video exporting function at the moment, but good news is, you can use another free tool such as Screen Toaster to capture and export your masterpiece as a movie file. I do not work for whoever created these amazing inventions but let me just tell you...I think I'm in love.

Some artists experiment with bloodletting, blood consumption, self-mutilation and animal slaughtering as performance art.

Still, I found the following artists' performances visually intriguing and a little more convincing than those of the others.

Renfield’s Syndrome also known as Clinical Vampirism was named after the character Renfield in Bram Stoker's Dracula, and is a psychiatric disorder in which the sufferer feels a compulsion to consume blood. People who suffer from this condition are primarily male and often have the delusion of actually being a vampire and feeling the need for blood to obtain supernatural powers and sexual arousal. According to current psychiatric terminology, Renfield's Syndrome is classified as schisophrenia or paraphilia.
