The naked man: why composer Andrew Batt-Rawden was nude at his own premiere
Composer Andrew Batt-Rawden, 31, and I are at a cafe on the edge of Sydney Harbour. Batt-Rawden is saying no to a muffin with his mineral water. "Are you sure?" asks the cafe person. "Look, they have choc chips!" "Wow!" enthuses Batt-Rawden in his very clear voice. "But I’ve got to be naked tonight, so I can’t." I can vouch for this. I met Batt-Rawden - composer, festival director, arts administrator, magazine owner, and once-was-oboe-player - last night, at the world premiere of 27, his work for string quartet. And he was, indeed, naked...More...

A guide to Ireland’s nudist beaches and nine places naturists can sunbathe in the nip
Back in 2014, Ireland hosted the 34th International Naturist Congress in Drumshanbo. People from all over the world headed for Co. Leitrim - needless to say, if they had nothing on.

Why Dating Naked Is Actually a Fantastic Idea
