Alan,
I have that one along with Voluptuous Panic by the
same author. Hot Girls of Weimar Germany is full of
images I’ve had fun playing with. The best thing
written in English on all this is:  
Empire of Ecstasy: Nudity and Movement in German Body
Culture, 1910-1935 (Weimer and Now: German Cultural
Criticism, No 13) (Hardcover)
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0520206630/ref=wl_it_dp/103-5710973-2864609?ie=UTF8&coliid=I3OUTAUYEVP2XB&colid=24VLB0A2ZAQ78

Actually, I don’t have all these books myself right
now because they have been borrowed by a friend who a
highly skilled practitioner of sex magic. I’m writing
a story and playing with images and sounds and it may
all come together eventually into some kind of
ritual\performance. Anita is a strange attractor who
seems to be pulling a group of people together who
will only know what they have come together to do
after the fact. It occurred to me for the first time
today that this event should, perhaps, unfold in SL or
at least has an SL component. 

Another friend who might be involved in this speaks
fluent German and has graduate training in and a rare
talent for mathematics, especially topology. I know a
sex priestess, a topologist, lots of therapists and
I’m trained in semiotics. I now know how to jump up
and down and laugh in SL. I don’t know how all this
dovetails together but I can’t wait to find out.
Michael
