I'm assuming this is something like african time and will involve you turning up to run the workshop anywhere from 2 hours to 2 days late?

*sniggers* Two hours to two days. Nice. I'd like to live on that sort of time for a while... just as a change.

And Geo! I want to you teach me rope dart, too! I had fun with it at BM and I enjoy working with a single poi so I thought it would be a fun thing to pick up and play around with. grin

Can be done Josh. Will try do limited set times perhaps in the hall though for ease of washing screens.
Will get you guys to again provide newspaper iron,old tea towels and a heat gun if possible, I tink the paints from last year should be goodand Ill bring squeegies as needed.
Will bring litres of henna again and miles of hair wrap stuff!

Do you think the practice rope darts we used last time with 3 poi on the end of a rope worked alright? I can come up with a new cunning plan if they weren't that good. could always have a monkey fist tying workshop and then attach rope to them.

You have lived on that sort of time before Cat. Burning Man time is exactly the same! wink

I'm gonna run a workshop, probably beginner to intermediate hoop and maybe a beginner mini hoop one if anyone is interested.........

rollsmile


I've made the best rope darts out of bondage rope (doesnt burn your hands then) and tied a sock poi in the end as weight and a monkey fist on the other end so you dont loose the end.

hmmm, how does bondage rope differ from the cotton rope available at bunnings?
now that you've sorted out your CG ticket, I think we'll have to campare rope darts cause I make mine a little differently.

I think it would be a lot different as its designed not to give you rope burns so its really soft. my other half is the expert, he spent a lot of time researching the best rope and i think he ended up buying it from an adult store. Its really good though, i have used other peoples rope darts and they have hurt my hands due to rope burn

A big doll making needle Geo wiht thin cord thru it to the bondage cotton rope makes it easier tot thread the rope thru the balls.
Doll needle easier to get than my ball poker which is missing anyways

*sniggers again* Bondage rope. Nice.
New application for existing technology.

Geo, i still maintain it wasn't completely Black Man time as I still had a watch and there were still events or workshops that started at certain times. I wasn't really bothered about the time, but I was still aware of what day it was and that I wanted to be somewhere specific around 3pm.

I want to forget entirely about the modern measuring of time for a little while. That means being around others who don't care about it either for long enough that I can lose track of days and months. Perhaps I'll go join a hippie commune for a year. tongue

Does anyone know where I can get a ticket (2 preferably) to CG, I missed out as I was away on holidays and couldn't get to any internet.

Also I will also be bringing also ropedart or 2. Very excited to learn some new tricks and maybe teach some too. I'm only just beginning but I learn quickly. Hopefully my shoulder is in good enough shape... I dislocated it last week.

please PM me or post here if anyone finds a ticket to CG!!!

I'm not convinced you could handle living in a hippie commune. I'm imagining you trying to get your dome built for a party and getting very frustrated at people telling you to chill out/relax/other stereotypical hippie sayings when you need their help right away. Maybe next BM you should try not wearing a watch and see where you end up. you might keep track of the days, but you'll lose track of the time.

Yeah... There are more reasons than that for me to avoid living in a hippie community. Perhaps an artists community would be better. Or a specific sort of hippie commune. The kind that likes building and living off the land and making things and growing things and being productive and clean and happy and not drugged out all the time. tongue Well-balanced hippies.

As for BM....there are always workshops I want to go to. Workshops that start at a certain time on a certain day.
You know I can't resist learning things. tongue

Mmmm tasty knowledge. Nom nom nom.

Q!!! Does anyone going from Adelaide have a rice cooker?
I know how to make some pretty fab sushi and I would be more than happy to if I can find a rice cooker and the fixings. I could even teach if anyone wanted to learn.

Sushi is happiness.... all rolled up and dipped in Soy Sauce.

I didn't get a ticket this year, so chances are I'm not going. frown

I'll be at MJC 2 weeks beforehand though, see you there!

Otherwise, I'll find you guys some other time. Miss you!

As for rope dart technology, I braided some cord to make my rope. It took a little while, but 0% ropeburn. I highly recommend it. Tying pretty things to it is easy, and the cord cost $2 from the 2 dollar store.
