I drop by every once in a while, just in case you set the robot to auto-update your site. And, even though you didn’t, I like re-reading some of your sage posts and looking at your vibrant art!

Years of preparation and I wasnt. I thought R would sail up and down and we’d clown around but pain took you. You’d scoff in life but are an angel in death. Told you so and thank you.

[...] Was it a matter of being the right place at the right time or pure genius? Who can say, but it truly was a perfect storm. With the rise of media exposure and the shift from print to digital images people all over the earth could suddenly share their experiences and discuss their passion through sites like BME. A community was born, and it was a revolution. Shannon Larratt was truly a catalyst to a generation. In fact, I think Shannon said best in his final blog entry: [...]

Do you just use a crucible and melt your own metal to pour into your mold? I am interested in adding casting to my in home jewelry studio and your technique seems user friendly. i like the idea that you have cast with the stones already set as well… any advice or more info welcomed! beautiful work.

For several years now I would pop in to see what was new with you and your world of Zen… I never met you or your family, but find myself deeply saddened by your passing… My thoughts are with your family and your daughter… I know at a time like this, words seem to be meaningless; but know that though we have never met, I hope the best for your family, and most importantly, your daughter.

I knew Shannon for 13 yrs. He claimed my son “the first BME baby” we are in the “BME scrapbook” pg.192. Justin was only 7 months old then in 2002. He is now 11 yrs old and like Ari (who is 10) means the world to me. We also added a daughter (Annika)to our family in 2007. Thank Shannon, you changed my life… R.I.P.

Comment on (Very) young people with piercings by Tlanextli

Tlanextli — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 11:39:57 +0000

No Person is actually able to make wise decisions until they are adult. Especially in puberty, where many guys are flipping out while the brain reforms.
There many guys who regret their decisions in their youth while many others have no Problems with it. As a state, I’d prohibit everything concerning BM until they are adults.
Kidz wouldn’t normally Chose to be pierced.
I’ve seen so many Kids beeing groomed to at least reluctantly agree to piercings, while actually not liking it, but aren’t too Young to speak their minds, especially to determined parents, who don’T give their kidz breathing space.
Ist a very difficult issue to talk about, concerning what’s good and what’s not. I guess it’s best just to acompany and protect kidz through the childhood instead of pressing the own attitudes and adornment wishes upon the minor.
And of course it’s not a measure what others do: Would someone really jump of the cliff while all the other Lemmings do? Switching on the own brain is the solution.
There are too many children on the world being shaped instead of growing up.

This is what happens when the parents force their wishes upon their kidz while the minor doesn’t actually want that:

By the way: Manipulating a kid at any way at ist belly button is considered a paedophile act and is punishable.

I would like to send a special thank you to everyone who, reading Shannon’s Finita, la commedia, donated money via Caitlinjane@gmail.com . I am honoured that Caitlin has asked me to manage these funds for Ari’s future. I wish I could thank you all personally and tell you how much your gesture means to all of us (and Shannon). With loving thoughts, Kathy Vowinckel (Shannon’s mother)

I somehow missed this news until a month later…Shannon was so much more to the body modification community, and universe, than I can put into words, in a tiny field. He will be missed.

I feel bad that it took me this long to notice. I never actually knew you but I thoroughly enjoyed reading about your life and experiences. You inspired creativity in me that I never knew was there, inspired me to learn about things I had never even imagined existed and I thank you for that. I wish nothing but the best for your daughter and Caitlin.
