On The Edge is offering “Give Me The Code,” an Intelligence Gathering Interrogation workshop with Ken Melvoin-Berg (@Kreamy) and Fetlife’s @Happy-Venom. These two gentlemen (well, always polite but not necessarily gentle!) are former Special Forces military folks (ok technically, Ken was only “elite,” not special) involved with interrogation or its aftercare.
Get ready to delve into extreme edge play, psychological play, pressure points, electric persuasion, water tortures and more!
Throughout the course of the evening Ken and Mr. Venom will address interrogation, confirmation and reward plus some of the extreme tactics the intelligence community uses to retrieve top secret information. They will also look at after effects including psychological aftercare, PTSD, Stockholm Syndrome, etc.
There will be much more information here than your typical BDSM Interrogation class– this is the real deal! To facilitate learning and bring together all of the elements discussed, they will conduct an intense live interrogation scene for the class.
Class will conclude with Q & A followed by open playtime at The Studio.

As always, there will be fun, prizes, vendors and, of course, extreme electric play with Neon wands and Violet Wands.
The Devilishly Devious Zombie John and his very best H. H. Holmes meets Jules Verne inspired latex designs will be performing feats of body painting extraordinaire.
Minions #1 and #2 will be serving as human furniture, door people and DMs (dungeon monitors). We will be decorating them up with some liquid latex Xmas cheer and making one of them a Yule tree.
We will also play Victorian games like anal ring toss, ass cherry relay and we have a new game for you chirurgeons and medical doctors, Frankenstein’s monster electro-operation.
