I have just uploaded around 40 minutes of video from the two debut sessions with a very beautiful and mysterious masked Chinese model, Nania. The first session features her in a traditional Chinese kimono, which although visually stunning, as Nina pointed out, this had the disadvantage of hiding her amazing body. Don’t worry, we put …
While she has been staying here the past few days, Gorgone has been working with Mo to finish off her guide to tying her self-designed hip harness. I had the task of doing one of the proof viewings and I can assure you that it’s a very nice piece of work. Like Nina’s, this addresses …
You might recall the stunning photos of Gorgone, tied by Nina and I, taken by Ciprian which gathered record breaking Love Its on Fetlife.

As you might have been aware, if you have been following my tedious posts on the the unbelievably frustrating experiences I have been having with technology. Little short of demonic possession or gremlins can explain the string of technical problems that have beset me in getting both my camera and edit PC working properly. The …
On Friday evening, we will try live streaming BOUND again. Mo discovered the reason for the garbled underwater sound in previous attempts…the audio bit rate was set to something silly. Allegedly, Flying Dutchman have upgraded their broadband but I’m not holding my breath for massive speeds. At any rate, we will have a recording from …
Last year, I was asked to help out with rope work for a short film, ‘Room 55’, being made by Rose Glass, a student at the NFTS, who I met at BOUND. I was keen to be involved as the script portrayed shibari in a very positive light, which is something I like to encourage. …
