BME: Body Modification Ezine

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.

The Friday Follow-up

Written by

Rob

Earlier this week we got to take a look at a fresh cutting by Anders.   Well it turns out that fresh cutting on JakeMindsnared was actually done over 9 months ago.  This means, not only do we have a follow-up from earlier in the week, but also a look back at an earlier scar that Anders did on Jake.

So here’s Jake’s rhino scar just as it was finished, over a year ago.

To see how both this scar, and the horn scars look today, keep on reading.

So, after a year for the rhino, and nine months for the horns, here’s how they look.

To see more healed pics, as well as more photos from both scarification sessions, head on over to Anders’ scarification portfolio gallery.

    by Coin-coin le Canapin
    In 2010, a German study was published involving subjects with tongue piercings. The tongue piercing was used as part of a device designed to relieve obstructive sleep apnea.

  • Suspended, Not Silenced
    by Jonathon
    There’s something undeniably powerful about watching someone working through the stages of suspension. We all build up ideas about ourselves—what we’re allowed to feel, how much we’re allowed to express, when it’s okay to break. For some, suspension is not about pushing physical limits its… Read more: Suspended, Not Silenced

    by Jonathon
    Some stories take their time, unfolding over decades, through life’s long detours and diversions. But dreams never rest until they’re fully realized. Even after 15 years, Robb knew there was still a suspension experience waiting for him. Something left unfinished, something essential. At the Ontario… Read more: A Nightbird’s Passage
  • What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul
    by Jonathon
    First suspensions are rarely just about the body—they’re a meeting point between the physical and the deeply personal. Stepping into this experience isn’t simply about trying something new, but about stepping outside yourself to a version you had always sensed was waiting. I’ve had a… Read more: What Lifts the Body, Shifts the Soul

    One of the most powerful things about being at a convention like OSC is the sheer concentration of experience, creativity, and capability in one place.
