A cutting of a starburst pattern done by Grin on St. Michael's arm. This was done as a cutting demo for a Detroit area bdsm group. The footage in this clip was taken from the camera that was used for large screen projection so the audience could get to see the process up close. You may notice that Grindatti demonstrates several different knives during this video. His prefered blade, seen through most of the clip, is an iris scalpel. It was a tough decision whether or not to post it. It was never intended to be used for anything other than projection at the time -hence, there is no establishing shot or final product shown. It does, however, show nice cutting technique and, in the end, it was for this reason that the decision was made to post the clip. General keyword list for most of HerGrinningCrow's videos (an attempt to get in front of more eyes.): Detroit, Dirty Show, dirtyshow, performance art, live art, piercing, needle play, needleplay, erotic, erotic art, fetish, fetish art, bloodplay, blood play, bdsm, s/m, s&m, pain, body mod, body modification, cutting, scarification, lip sewing, mouth sewing, hook pull, suspension, play piercing, and last (and probably least,) weird sexy emo goth. I hope you didn't bother to read all these, but if you did, thanks for the perseverance.

The fifth segment! Enjoy! I do need to point out that I was called out of the room sometime during either this segment or previously in part four. During that time out of the room my "assistant" wiped up some of the recievers blood with a T-shirt while I was TOTALLY unawares. I did, indeed, promptly kick his ass for it after we had finished. Remember kids- Handling blood without proper protection (especially latex or nitrile gloves) is an absolute NO NO! If you're stupid enough to ask why, please look for other forms of entertainment as you are too ignorant to fully understand scarification and it's consequences.

I've been looking into Scarification and Branding for about three years now and thought I'd delve right into it... and considering the wonders of technology (and maybe a hint of narcissism), I thought I'd video blog the entire event. So here's the introduction to the whole deal. This is my first ever video log, so please bear with me if there are any imperfections, y'know? Anyway, here's the list of songs I used in the video: "Girl" by Beck "Infra-Red" by Placebo "Shampoo Suicide" by Broken Social Scene "Got the Time" by Anthrax

Finally making the first slices into his skin. I know you guys have waited a long time for this, but I JUST learned how to edit the vids last night. To those curious, yes, the handle on that scalpel is indeed steel. The blade was removable and disposable, while the handle was intended to be sanitized between uses. However, dolly here has upped her game and is taking further steps to keep both myself and my "victims" safe- nitrile gloves, medical grade sterile gauze, FULLY sterile and disposable scalpels, as well as required waivers have to be sign and identification recorded. I will not risk myself or the recievers of these cuttings to be in danger, whether legal or medical. I feel that I MUST apologize for the idiot who took the video. At the time, he was a dear friend and I decided to over look his many... Shall we say "quirks"? I hope you enjoy guys, there's more coming soon!

i feel creatively destructive at the moment.... so im going to try to etch my butterfly into my leg.... one wing is done... DO NOT ATTEMPT!!!1 I KNOW I SOUND DUMB SAYING SO, but seriously dont...... i shouldnt even do it, LOL....
