One of the easiest and most fun ways to “untie with intention” is to use the rope, as it comes off, to re-tie in different places and different ways. Nil and Davey show how this creates a kind of “back and forth” game that keeps the process of untying fun and connected rather that just an intellectual exercise of loosening knots. They demonstrate many playful, sensual, and even sadistic methods, previewing the clips to come.
