    Born on Lesbos, Greece, Eurydice is a multimedia artist and visionary whose body of work is infused with a consistent ideological and aesthetic study of female marginalization and objectification, and the dualisms of mind vs. body, of repressed vs. uninhibited sexuality in daily life, as these are influenced by history and displacement. Eurydice Eve is the author of Satyricon USA; A Journey Across The New Sexual Frontier (by Scribner , Simon & Schuster, & Touchstone); of f/32: The Second Coming (by Virago Press); of f/32 (by Fiction Collective) & is at work on her memoir The Lesbian, her novella Eurydice In Her Own Words, & her non-fiction book Speak Sex To Power.

We aim to launch a new collective language * all-inclusive cultural acceptance of articulate conscious sex. Interviews, news, truths. Be on the frontlines of the Sexual R/Evolution: Speak Sex! Eurydice is the inventor of scribal therapy and the founder of the Institute for Self-Satisfaction. Scribal Therapy is the focused daily practice of writing by hand in order to manifest self-knowledge & self-healing. Eurydice believes in words as alchemical symbols as well as signifiers. She is the author of three books on modern sexuality: Satyricon USA (Scribner), f/32: The Second Coming (Virago), f/32 (Richard Kasak & Fiction Collective II). She also wrote the Sex Files investigative series and advice column for Spin & Gear magazines. Eurydice has taught at the Ivy League Graduate level (Brown U Literary Studies) and at the homeless women’s shelter (Lotus House), in a women’s prison and a Syrian refugee camp. Her career, her philosophy and her daily life are focused on fostering evolutionary social change through personal transformational education. She has mentored hundreds of young people and has coached hundreds of adults into liberational self-discovery and fundamental life change through self-sourced social reconditioning. Eurydice Eve is the founder of The Institute for Self-Satisfaction, a Gurdjieff-inspired non-profit based in Florida, US, & of The Lost Genius Academy, a refugee-supporting NGO based on Lesbos Greece. She has initiated an archival body of women’s oral histories & has volunteered at the refugee camps on her native island & womens’ homeless shelters in Miami.

  3. Bridging the Gap Between Activism & Social Change Through Art & Psychedelic Shamanism (Plant Based Medicine) with Multidimensional Artist, Jana Cruder

    Bridging the Gap Between Activism & Social Change Through Art & Psychedelic Shamanism (Plant Based Medicine) with Multidimensional Artist, Jana Cruder

    Jana Cruder is Bridging  the gap between Activism & Social Change through:  ART PERFORMANCE, FILM, PHOTOGRAPHY & INSTALLATION. She is an award winning photographer that has captured some of the most well known celebrities, tastemakers and influential people in the public eye. Her work as balances femininity and power. Cruder’s experimental, experiential, immersive, conceptual installations range from the environment, society technology, and how it affects the human condition. In other words our evolution as a global society. We also take an honest journey into her passion as she gives us insight into her experiences as a plant alchemist. And how plant based medicine such as ayahuasca , psilocybin - mushrooms, + others, are used in sacred ceremonies because of their healing properties - that not only can heal anxiety, depression, ptsd but also ancestral trauma. Jana gives a sneak peak into her newest body of work slated for 2021, "Room of Rainbows." The resurgence of interest in psychedelics among medical researchers in the past decade has led to new findings and ongoing clinical trials using LSD, psilocybin, MDMA, and other drugs. But while this research is taking place in clinical settings, an underground—and understudied—community of people is helping others to use plant-based hallucinogenic drugs. In guided sessions or ceremonies, facilitators administer drugs like ayahuasca or psilocybin to people looking to alter their consciousness and improve their mental health.

WE INVITE YOU IN THE CREATION OF OUR VIBRATION.  (This episode contains explicit content)  Kanso, a professional Shibari & Kinbaku Rope Artist, #Instructor, Performer & Sex Positive Educator . He has studied the human anatomy w• a background in TCM in Acupuncture acquired in China in the mid 2000's. Kanso has long been fascinated with Simplicity of Aesthetics: Art, Culture, Food & Somatic Pleasurable Experiences . After visiting an underground BDSM club in Tokyo, where performances included the ancient Japanese art form of Shibari. He came back to the Bay Area & began a career as Rope Artist.

He’s performed at San Francisco Folsom Street Fair & Lightning in a Bottle Festival just to name a couple... He has a school & a wide variety of clientele w/ private clients & public demos.  Needless to say in this episode we get down and dirty, & extremely inappropriate. It's not for Gratuitous reasons even if we have a laugh here & there. Our conversation is candid & maybe not for everyone but it’s authentic, & a lesson in the #counterculture of #kink & bdsm. So put away that toxic shame surrounding sex & get cozy w/ the one you’re quarantined with, even if that means a night of self lovin’ aka #masturbation.  When Kanso speaks, you can feel the amount of respect he has for his work, his emotional intelligence & how he holds space for those that seek to release #trauma by these alternative methods. He is refreshingly honest about subjects that most people find #taboo . Listen w• an open heart, mind & educate yourself on "the kink" counterculture & how it can be used as an alternative healing therapy . Loosen up with a glass of wine, because it's sexy time!  Kanso is founder & head Instructor at the Rope Circle. He was first introduced to the world of Japanese rope bondage (Shibari) while visiting Japan 2006 and has spent the many years refining his rope practice and skills.

He is also the co-founder of BARE (the Bay Area Rope Exchange), which hosts rope parties and puts on highly popular bondage performances at the Folsom Street Fair annually. In 2017, Kanso started the Kiss of Rope with the intention of bringing the art of Japanese rope more into the mainstream, through performance art and private instruction. The aim is to raise awareness of Shibari as a transformational practice that helps build deeper intimacy, connection and sensuality between partners.   http://kissofrope.com/ Kanso_Kinbaku Kanso Rope Artist Kanso 簡素 Kinbakutoday.com interview with Kanso

    Sexual Wellness Through Creative Pleasure with guest Dr. Cara Quant, Founder of Viva LA Vulva LA | We discuss Art, Female Sexuality, Lubes, P***y Oracles & Female Ejaculation aka "Squirting."

    In this episode of Sex, Magick and Dessert I interview Dr. Cara Quant. Dr Quant is an internal medicine physician and founder of Viva La Vulva, an organization that educates on female sexual health and wellness and multimedia visual arts.  We discuss the benefits of sexual pleasure and creativity, p***y oracle "vulva readings," suggested lubricants, a healthy pelvic floor and female ejaculation aka squirting.  "The Art World & The Medical World Together Can Do More Than Seperately." - Dr. Cara Quant Viva La Vulva’s mission is to break down the barriers that stop both men and women from talking and learning about female sexual health in a way that transcends race, culture, age and geography. A safe engaging platform through art and medical expertise to normalize the concept of female sexual health. A driving force of change in the way female sexual health is perceived. Viva La Vulva is a movement created and organized by Internal Medicine physician, Dr. Cara Quant who noticed how men’s sexual issues are regularly discussed in the medical community, but women’s sexual health issues are often overlooked.  She understands that the language of art can be used for education and as a means of healing. She brought together a diverse team of people with a shared vision to bring the idea of Viva La Vulva into reality. “So many things can affect a woman’s sexual health throughout her life such as sexual abuse, pregnancy, stress, menopause, cultural ideals and often times the pain or lack of desire that happens as a result of these life events that are not addressed. Education is the key to overcoming.”  says Dr. Quant. https://vivalavulvala.org Viva La Vulva Podcast https://www.facebook.com/vivalavulvala/ https://www.instagram.com/vivalavulvala/ For more info on Franceasca Seiden and SAHA visit Sexual Alchemy Healing Arts and LAiCreatives
