Charmed! 2026

Virtually Accessible BDSM
2026-01-17 , Virtual Room 1

Virtual reality allows a safe environment to explore more extreme kinks psychologically with lower risks of injury and complications. There is a thriving BDSM community and many folks ask about getting involved. This session attempts to cover the frequently asked questions and demonstrate the possibilities. The content is aimed at an audience with a high degree of IRL BDSM experience but not a lot of virtual experience.
We will cover the following and possibly more questions as time allows:
What separates the virtual BDSM community from the IRL BDSM community? What’s the appeal and what drawbacks should I expect?
How does this intersect with neurodivergence?
How can hypnosis overcome the gap to allow for a more embodied, visceral experience of BDSM in virtual spaces?
How do these two worlds overlap?
What kinds of resources do I need to get started on the one hand and/or to make this as satisfying as possible for myself or my play partner(s)?

A switchy and ofttimes fluffy hypnotic experimentalist, Kit Zero has nearly a decade of experience as a hypnotist. Kit strives to steal from more than just Erickson for data-driven kinky fun.
