Bespoke Rope: Shape, Proportion, and Tailoring Your Ties
2025-04-24 19:00 - 22:00 (Europe/Berlin)
Have you ever had the magical experience of finding a store where the clothes fit like they’re made exactly for you? Or (on the flip side) an existential dread evoked by the phrase “Shopping For Pants”?
The harnesses we tie are basically rope clothes. Let’s talk about how (and how not) to make smart selections to help you find your fit before you even try them on.

Let’s Think about Thinking – An Exploration of Mental Models for Collaborations in Rope
2025-02-26 19:00 - 22:00
I like you. You like me. We both like rope. It should be easy for us to tie together…right?
Except sometimes it isn’t. Sometimes (despite our best efforts and intentions) communication within a rope partnership just doesn’t click.
This is the story of us (Amnesia Jane and Viking). Five years into our tying collaboration, we finally realized how much we were breaking each other’s brains.
Join us as we share what this has taught us about negotiation, thinking, perseverance, and compassion.
