And no.. I wasn`t singing... that would transform the performance in a Seme experience to all the audience hahahah.If you wanna have a look :)https://youtu.be/TLuuvCYpf0c

Laiana is a lyrical singer specialized in contemporary vocal techniques—she works with noise, fragments, glitches. After our first meeting, she mentioned wanting to explore a voice-and-shibari project. Since I’m very interested in how movement and rope affect the voice, we began from there.

At the beginning, we were researching how to “break” the singing. But her body is so well-trained to protect her voice that this wasn’t as easy as one might think, haha. Eventually we reached that point, but we realized the subtle vocal changes that occurred during tying were far more interesting.

For the performance itself, she proposed starting from a fragmented composition based on Schubert’s Gretchen am Spinnrade. First, because the song speaks of someone spinning a thread—an image close to shibari. And second, because it deals with intrusive thoughts, something that disrupts your actions, your day, your peace, which resonated with the physical research we were doing.

Niiiice!

It’s crazy, right? It seems like all the “free speech–focused” policies they’ve been defending so fiercely only apply to extreme right–wing publications right now. Did you ever had trouble with your instagram account too? 

Ahhh, this is so cool! Are there any pictures on Instagram or FetLife?If I were to visit Germany, how could I find the bondage picnics ...through FetLife?

Nowadays, it happens in most main cities — São Paulo, Rio, Curitiba, Brasília, and others.You can find information about the one in Rio at https://www.instagram.com/atadosnoparquerj. The date for next month isn’t out yet; they usually announce it around the beginning of the month. I’m part of the organizing team for the São Paulo event, so if you visit and want to attend, let me know!

We had a similar experience with the police here — they were more curious than anything, which was a nice surprise! Once, we even had some religious folks approach us and try to convince us to go to church… that was a truly unexpected moment, hahahaha.

The chocker tie design here looks a bit different from the one teaching the choker tie. The desig with the half moon frictions is super cool. How is it built? After completing the neck stage you go straight to the waist and then come back up? It looks a bit like an Y hanger on the wrist cuff, is it how its built?

thanks! I wasn't finding it!
