A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Ride the Spiral to the End


New rule: When you get tattoos of five circles on your back, the radius of each corresponding to the first five terms in the Fibonacci sequence, and you then place a corresponding number of pomegranate seeds inside each circle, you get to be on ModBlog. (Also, I think Rachel‘s position is distorting the circles a bit, because those suckers are indeed quite straight. Err, round. You know what I mean.)

    Beautiful 6 circles. What, you don’t see 6 circles? Well, here are the radii: 0,1,1,2,3,5. That’s 6. You’ve got to look real closely. Don’t you see the first circle, the one with the radius of 0? Trust me, it is there, even if it is impossible to see.
