BLURB-O-RAMA!
Fresh from our final, sell-out screenings at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, we're finally back from San Francisco with some great memories, several new friends, a few extra pounds - and a nice batch of blurbs for the collection:
"More like Wild Kingdom than Girls Gone Wild, the CineKink 2007 series ...neutrally observes sexual transgression: the forms it takes, the relief it offers, and the privacy it (often jubilantly) breaches."
- Sara Schieron, San Francisco Bay Guardian
“CineKink's entries are often injected with a refreshing dose of camp and playfulness...Equal parts raunchy and sexy, the festival succeeds because it never loses sight of sex's potential for absurdity and transcendence.”
- Nirmala Nataraj, SF Weekly
"Seeing all those body parts at the AVN expo is analogous to the separation between sex and sensuality evident in AVN's typical lineup of winners. We're only going to find sexual authenticity and really hot porn when we reconnect those parts to actual people, like those behind the indie efforts found at CineKink."
- Violet Blue, SF Gate
For the full accolades, CineKinkster has all the links http://www.cinekink.com/blog/
Thanks for the kind words. And thanks to Yerbe Buena, film/video curator Joel Shepard and everyone who came out for the SF screenings for such a fantastic welcome!
WTF...WHERE'S RKB?
We're happy to be back in NYC and all, but we find we've come home to a gaping hole in our weekly reading pleasures, as sex columnist wunderkind (and CineKink booster), Rachel Kramer Bussel, has been unceremoniously dismissed by the Village Voice. Get all the details at RKB's blog, then rain down your displeasures on the editorial powers that be -

CINEKINK ALUMS
** Hey, Chicago! Your registration opportunity closes soon(!!) on the chance to soak up the filmmaking prowess of Kristie Alshaibi ('Other Peoples' Mirrors' - CineKink 06) and Usama Alshaibi ('The Amateurs' and 'Green Room' - CineKink 06). Among the classes upcoming at their Z School of Cinema is "Dirty Movies," in which students learn all the ins and outs of making adult cinema.

RACHEL KRAMER BUSSEL IS OUR FRIEND. (ARE YOU?)
Since it's what all the cool kids are (were?) doing, we're on MySpace! (Why, yes, if so-and-so jumped off a bridge, we'd be right there behind him.) And, just because we're afraid of missing the party (any party, really), we've staked out a spot on LiveJournal, too. Come on in, the water's great!
