Combinatorial Creativity in Kink with Najalaise

Ever wonder how people come up with ideas for their BDSM play?
This workshop is geared toward tops who are interested in making their scenes "as beautiful as the chance meeting on a dissecting-table of a sewing-machine and an umbrella."
Unleashing your creativity when planning scenes makes the process more absorbing and often results in play that's more satisfying- and makes a better story later. "Combinatorial" creativity is the view of creativity as a process which synthesizes multiple ideas, concepts, or skill sets, sometimes in unexpected ways. This workshop will not attempt to teach you how to be creative. We all have that skill already. Instead, we'll explore ways to keep the creative machinery fed with new and diverse tidbits and to build contexts which incite imaginative thinking.
About the Presenter:
Najalaise is maniacal but decent. Well before joining the CSPC in 2005, Naj was exploring kink and introducing others to play piercing, figging, sounding, fisting, and more. These days, Najalaise has been presenting workshops on kink skills, introducing still more people to play piercing through tasting events, volunteering at the CSPC, co-organizing the local Erotic Hypnosis Enthusiasts' Group, and working with the programming committee for the 2013 Kink LINCS Leadership Symposium. Naj is gleeful about learning and trying new things, both as a top and a bottom, and is committed to supporting communities that encourage people to share their knowledge, creativity, and passion.
