Take me to Monkey Town!

Find us in Williamsburg on Thursday night, as CineKink’s Lisa Vandever joins writer/filmmaker/blogger extraordinaire, Lauren Wissot, in co-curating Kinky Camp, a bit of celluloid debauchery for Monkey Town’s “Midnight Movies” series.

Thursday, July 26th, midnight

Monkey Town
58 N. 3rd Street
(bet. Kent & Wythe)
Williamsburg, Brooklyn

Come out early for a little tapas and DJ set, then stick around for a late night of cinematic perversity. We'll be heating things up with a few of our campiest CineKink favorites. Then Lauren will take over with, well, shhhh.... it's a secret!

In lieu of a trivet...

Happy housewarming to Viviane's Sex Carnival, as they settle in to swanky, new digs at http://www.thesexcarnival.com !

Be sure to adjust your blogroll, then stop in and give them your best...

Men in suits alert!

How lucky are we to have a secret fetish that's actually not not safe for work? (Though, come to think of it, such fetish can sometimes make the actual practice of work a little dangerous.)

Tonight's the premiere of Mad Men on AMC. In addition to the previously noted men in suits - as this trailer promises, "...reliable... confident ... and hiding something" - the distance of its early 60s setting will also permit lots of glamourous smoking, drinking and carousing, along with the type of hot, retro lingerie that looks so much better than it generally feels.

As to the retro (or, er, not) rampant bad boy sexism depicted? Let's just try that on as a little winking roleplay and, safeword on the ready - we'll give it a go!

What's 2257 divided by 13?

And, once again, does it matter if you're a primary or a secondary producer?

We imagine we could claim some numerologically-significant superstition that prevents us from spending Friday the 13th dissecting the latest decision from the DoJ on 2257 regulations, which landed in our metaphorical laps yesterday. But to be honest, we'd really rather just declare the rest of the day a "summer Friday" and make sure we've got all our provisions laid up for tomorrow's Bi Bare Beach Bash at Sandy Hook's naked nude clothing-optional beach.

Fortunately, several others out there are already doing the heavy lifting. We'll just pass these links along, then print out the pages and stick them in our bag with the SPF30. Nothing like a little, light beach reading!

Sad news from Australia

From director Michael Ney comes word that photographer Noel Graydon died last week from heart failure.

Subject of the documentary, Liberty in Restraint, which played CineKink in both short (Best Documentary Short/CineKink 2004) and feature (CineKink 2005) versions, Noel had been a fixture of the Sydney fetish world for over a decade. For five years he trained and worked as a BDSM Master, aka "Master Venom," and established the friendships which led him to genuinely photograph and capture this sometimes clandestine world.

Noel began his career as an assistant to a commercial photographer and assistant video cameraman in several video production companies. During this time he pursued freelance photojournalism with several newspapers and street press. As a photojournalist, Noel covered a variety of fields including humanities, Gen X and sexual lifestyle issues. His work was published in many magazines in Australia, as well as in the UK's SkinTwo. He also spent time with Flesh magazine as their BDSM columnist and recently launched a series of podcasts documenting many aspects of the fetish world.

The funeral will be held Friday, July 13 in Brisbane, Australia, with his wife, Annette, and their two daughters, as well as his parents and sister.  Noel was 36.

Our very best thoughts to his family, friends and colleagues. Noel will surely be missed.

Sugasmed again!

Yeah, so where do you get off?!

Quite alot of twisted knickers seems to be the result of a new video promoting European filmmaking. A rapid montage of sex scene clips builds and, er, climaxes to the slogan "Let's come together." Granted, the end image of an apparently male-only audience in rapt attention left us a wee bit skeeved, but we suspect much of the reported outrage was piqued by the inclusion of lovers that fall outside of strictly heterosexual and HWP parameters.

Or then again, maybe it's just any excuse for nationalism. Reports The Guardian:

Godfrey Bloom of the Eurosceptic UK Independence Party described the film as "cheap, tawdry and tacky" and demanded to know the cost to European taxpayers. "You might say it's appropriate for them to put out films like this," he told the Sun newspaper. "Brussels has been screwing the UK for at least 30 years."

We probably shouldn't take comfort in this, but we're finding it oddly uplifting to know that moralistic posturing isn't restricted solely to this side of the pond.

End July with a bang!

Namely, with a very kinky movie, plus pizza and beer...

Audience Choice Award - Best Documentary/CineKink 2005
Pornology New York
Directed by Michele Capozzi, 2005, 85 minutes.
A paean to the New York sexual underground, circa 1970-85, this engrossing documentary brings together four of its most colorful protagonists. Our guide to the action is Michele Capozzi, urban explorer and self-titled pornologist, with an up-close introduction to Neville Chambers, founder of the infamous porn-producing Fuck Factory; Lenny Waller, long-time front-man of the meat-packing district's now-defunct Hellfire Club and renowned pornstar/mistress/shaman, Porsche Lynn - for a look back in time, an assessment of where we are today...and one very wild farewell party.

Free pizza and beer reception follows for all ticket holders!!

"Pornology New York reinvents a time when anybody could go to Plato's Retreat, the Hellfire, Mindshaft, The Vault, the Anvil, Le Trapeze and even Show World, to indulge in their dirtiest, wildest fantasies and fetishes."
