I finished my Nanowrimo project–sailed over the 53k mark last weekend at minx’s. It’s about the quantity, not quality, but it will be available sometime soon–you can get last year’s attempt over there on the sidebar.
But I really had to laugh at one persons’ congrats, which quoted Neil Gaiman’s idea of what a Samwise/Gollum rope […]
The New Rope Weekly is up:
Interview with Master Poochie, star of LibidoMag’s new video.
Account by Lostboi of a demo session with Midori
.
More on Zen Aesthetics
A question for listeners: chain hoist vs. suspension frame: which is better?
And happy turkey day! Graydancer will in fact be at the Ropecraft Symposium, so stop in and say hi!
Mitchel Evans was kind enough to donate three new images to the Zen Bondage Garden Gallery. I love them–the blur of suspension, the tension from the pear, and the restful peace and incredible gaze of the model in the third and final image.
Also recorded a fun interview with Master Poochie, Porn Star last night. […]
I’ve put up the vidcasts now, both of Cunningminx’s performance with me and Genevieve at Forbidden a couple of years ago (now in iPod format) and also part 2 of Alegra and I performing at the Re-Orient Fusion. The latter is dark, sorry about that…but it may be somewhat entertaining. Links off of the Ropeweekly […]
The Zen Garden has its first contributions, from Noel Graydon (rope by Midori, model Felina, what a way to start!) and one from Monk and my dear Purple Nimue.
Remember, we are going for the ineffable here–the pics that not only get you in the crotch, but somewhere deeper, somehow resonating not only in the […]
New Podcast up: Rope Weekly 11.14.05
First off: you may be too late, but might want to check if you can still make it to the Rope Symposium, and be sure to pre-order your hemp from Twisted Monk!
Jack Elfrink offers some good solutions for dealing with tangled rope.
Mortis has great new photos at his site.
New vidcasts:
Noel […]
After a great interview with Melissa Gira last night, I can’t wait to edit the next rope weekly. There are some amazing similarities between the tradition of the Qadishtu and the aesthetics of Zen. And aside from having the sexiest voice in podcasting, she’s incredibly intelligent and well-spoken and FUN!
Ok, so I’m gushing. Still, look […]
Still time to sign up for the Austin Ropecraft Symposium!
I would like to set up a virtual “Zen Bondage Garden” in my Gallery. If you’d like to contribute, please send an image (that you have rights to–don’t steal, please) to graydancer@gmail.com.
Here is the quote that inspired me, from an essay about Japanese Zen Gardens:
Many unique […]
I’m getting a strange trial-by-fire in flow lately, as I try to keep all my eggs in the air. There’s the job egg, the family egg, the oh-my-house-caught-fire-last-night egg, the financial egg, and of course the Nanowrimo egg. Right now it’s going ok–I’m only 1000 words behind schedule–but I can already feel the tension, the […]

Graydancer is a midwestern rope artist, who occasionally teaches, performs, and does other pretty outrageous things with rope and human bodies. He is a bi poly kinky dom, and misses the title "mega-slut" by only the narrowest of margins.
