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.

Waking the Winds

Written by

Rob

Let’s kick this week off on a fun note with this tattoo of Link from the gamecube Zelda game, The Wind Waker.

This game has the distinction of being one of the few Zelda games I never finished as the thought of spending hours digging up maps from the bottom of the ocean to give to a really annoying character in a green suit drove me batty.

    You should finish it! It’s usually unnecessary to get the stuff up from the ocean- it’s just extra bonus stuff.
