Pleasure Island

PI-09 / Index

The map

Every page on the island, in one list. Regions are the wide territories. Guides are the walked routes. Tools are consulted rather than read. Notes are shorter pieces with no instruction in them at all.

The island has one entrance and no required order. Regions are the best starting point for a reader who does not yet know what they are looking for, since each one opens onto the guides that belong to it. Anyone who already knows the question should go straight to the guide or the table that answers it. The reference tools in particular are built to be opened, consulted and closed again rather than read from the top.

Regions

  • SoloPI-01. Attention, privacy and the fastest feedback loop there is.
  • TogetherPI-02. Two nervous systems, one pace, and the signals that keep them aligned.
  • BodyPI-03. Anatomy and arousal, described accurately and without diagrams.
  • GearPI-04. Toys as objects with materials, motors and limits.
  • CarePI-05. Lubricant, cleaning, storage and the half hour afterwards.
