Kinky Party. Zoom Orgy: how it was

Russian version

As we’ve already said, the coronavirus pandemic is adjusting the work of the market for adult goods: those who could – have gone online. So Kinky Party tried the online format, and our correspondent went to this event anonymously. Here is his report.

Introduction

I went there because I was curious, and I wanted to see how it looks online, how it can even be transferred to a network format.

The organizers sent everyone a guide, where everything was detailed: timing and conditions, according to which “if you want to turn on the broadcast of your video, then you must have a “kinky” image, if you are without the appropriate outfit, then the camera will have to be turned off, and all that remains is to observe what is happening”. I chose the second option.

Organization

My feelings that everything is thought out and organized here, unfortunately, turned out to be not entirely consistent.

Firstly, after entering the Zoom conference while waiting, the administrator asked for the email address fr om which I registered to check if this is the right person, or, for example, his friend to whom the link was sent. I was asked about this several times during the party and it was quite annoying. Apparently, there was some organizational chaos going on there.

Secondly, the organizers did not provide for moderation on the platform, they did not even think about it. The fact is that for many people Zoom is a new platform, at least in this format they are definitely not familiar with it. It could make sense to single out a person responsible for technical assistance to beginners, or to make a separate guide on using the system. The topic itself is quite specific, and this moment also created unnecessary nervousness.

Thirdly, the sound was turned off everywhere, the audience did not hear what was happening on the l stage, and could not communicate with each other by voice. The DJ's game was broadcast on a separate YouTube channel, and it was only in the middle of the party that the DJ came to Zoom.

Fourthly, there was no leader. The participants did not always understand what was happening. There was no chat communication, although this is also the element of the party, which could include game factor.

Fifthly, the guide contained a list of the organizers' nicknames, with comments that they could be addressed in the chat with any question. In fact, these nicknames were not present in the chat.

The program

The program of the party looked like this: at the beginning there was a welcome number (the organizers fixed the camera in the broadcast so that no one could change the picture on their own): a lot of bodies that imitated an orgy. There were spanking, binding, kissing - and the camera moved between all these scenes. It was very beautifully done, apparently, such a start was supposed to tune the audience in the right way.

The second act was a performance by a specially invited superstar who showed a burlesque striptease number. The performance did not make the proper impression on me, I admit that her charisma simply did not penetrate me through the Internet. This is generally a difficult moment – to achieve the right atmosphere, emotional contact through online.

Three thematic “rooms” were announced: BDSM, shibari and virtual sex. In fact, only the BDSM room was launched. Separately, it was necessary to contact the administrator so that he added you to this room, which took a long time – five to ten minutes (I think this is due to the possibility of the zoom platform). There you could immerse yourself in what was happening and watch the process accompanied by a chillout DJ set. The rest of the rooms did not work.

On the main stage there was a shibari show, there was a strong man who, together with his girlfriend, tirelessly entertained the audience for all four hours: either bondage, then oral sex, or with toys – in general, they worked really desperately. There was also a room with girls in the bathroom and a shibari room with two girls and dominance.

But in this whole process there was in a desperate lack of a leader.

The broadcast went through three cameras: you could switch between videos, watch the action fr om different angles, pin the video to display it on full screen and enjoy. But the quality of the picture from the cameras was not high.

As you remember, initially the organizers tried to divide all the participants into two parts: with a video (in a kinky outfit) and without. As a result, out of 200 people, about 70 were with video, among them were couples having sex during the broadcast, masturbating and just watching. Many online guests were putting on an additional free show.

Impressions

I believe that the organizers' idea was not fully realized. Therefore, they transferred everything announced to the general chat, wh ere all viewers were muted. In my opinion, this format is aimed at people with exhibitionistic and voyeuristic inclinations. In an offline format, it would be possible to join the participants, if they do not mind accepting someone in their little story, but online this is impossible. By the way, if we talk about online participants, there were interesting personalities among them: one girl danced and undressed, there were couples who were having sex using toys. Such actions in a large zoom-gallery, wh ere you see only a small screen, draw attention and you want to look closer.

It was a very emotional experience: curious, funny, vivid images remained in my mind. I did not regret attending the Kinky Party. This format has a right to exist, it has its own charm: you can watch couples, but no one sees you.

But the questions about the sound support remained: it was very difficult for me to emotionally engage in some kind of love-story on the screen, when only the general DJ set was heard. If you hear even a breath or a whisper, you immediately feel like you are a part of it.

It seems to me that if you think over all the points: how to keep people engaged in a chat, how to manage this chat, how to provide people with a solution to their technical problems, then this will be a qualitatively new level.
