First a few simple notes: |
The Experience that is N9 is far greater than just that of our strong influence on Rocky Horror scenes. We are now and have always been about the openness of thought and expression of beliefs and of self. To this end (and many points between), N9 has often found itself ingrained in the subcultures of the subcultures that it was born from. One great example of the cultures we find our selves in, is the incredible Convention known simply as FANTASM. While most of us are familiar with and are from the Science-Fiction Convention Circuit, there within lies an even more open sub-society. This is the group of freaks and fans who are known to some as the Fetishists and the Experimentalists. Also known by the outside world as everything from Goths to BDSMs to Exhibitionists and Voyeurs. It is the most open of minds that finds itself in the new "free love" and "free expression" movements and the experiences and varieties found within. While N9 as a whole is not necessarily in any of the sub-cliches of the FANTASM Culture, it is as individuals that most all of us can find at least some level of commonality or kinship with these groups.
A full description of what
FANTASM is and can be is not readily available,
as it is simply everything and anything that someone might want to be, with
no fears of rejection, humiliation, or criticism. Very much the same as the
definition of N9 itself.
While N9 is but a
few hundred in its total form (at this time) and only about 90 or so in its
most recognized form of Rocky Horror crew,
FANTASM finds itself growing faster every
year and has in only its third year found itself nearing the 1000 level of attendance!!!
The atmosphere of FANTASM is that of open
sexuality and taste. No one is wrong in their thoughts or actions (unless they
infringe upon the safety of self of others without consent. This is always wrong!)
N9 respects and salutes
our friends of FANTASM and all of its fringes
and groups within. These pages of our weekend at FANTASM
are meant to entertain and educate the fans we share with FANTASM
and to teach the new fans what an open mind really can be about. This is in
no way meant as either a sleaze/smut show or as a cheap thrill for the mundane
passerby. Nor is it meant to be an endorsement of any specific activities shown
within. It is, in fact, simply a fans' view of the show and its elements. While
some peoples of lesser minds and closed hearts may find some individual aspects
of the convention offensive or distasteful, it is in no way our intent to offend.
We simply ask you leave now and not subject your shallow selves to the reality
of the world you live in.
Unlike most of the N9
RHPS pages on this site, this page set will
include narrative and pictures that might be of a more adult nature than usual.
RHPS has become more of a PG13 level in
our society over the years as it has loosen up, so no disclaimers are found
in those pages. These pages including here showing the unique RHPS
show hosted by N9
(and our friends of the Satanic Mechanics) are
a bit more graphic than usual and will carry the simple note that it was and
is intended as an adult show put on for adults by adults for the purpose of
expression of adult themes and ideas.
I hope to include at some point a "tamer version" of the RHPS
pics for the site in another page set for those who might find some scenes too
harsh. While I personally think everyone should be open to the experiences we
had this week, I know some are simply not ready yet. And as I would ask them
to respect my choices to attend these shows, I would return the respect and
not subject them to the scenes of a more graphic nature that they may not wish
to see. The show had enough elements of PG13 level I can post pics for the fans
who are not yet ready for the full thing. Respect us and we respect you.
