So we did a thing.
On Being Infectious.
Presented at the #QueerPharmaConference held at the Freie Universität Berlin

We spoke about the generative possibilities of HIV infection and its aesthetic (re)modulations.

With @alexmcclelland.bsky.social
Alex is a white gay with a multiple b&w tattoos on his arms and has a high & tight cropped haircut. He wears a black t-shirt that says ‘Acid’ in a white serif font typeface. His arms are crossed in front of his chest and he is making a ‘gay thoughts’ face. Mikiki is a white* gay** with one scratchy tattoo peeking out from between an aggressively styled black and fashion-misfitted t-shirt. They are bald and have a dangly crystal earring hanging from a safety pin. Their left hand is up in the air in a very gay way. Their face is scrunched up but their eyes are open. It looks weird. Two crisp gay whites hunch over a white work table while a video projection of Mariah Carey sings Hero live on a white wall. Same two dry whites wearing all black in same black and white room with a projection of Mierle Laderman Ukeles’ Maintenance Art from 1973. She is a white woman with shoulder length hair is on all fours scrubbing the stone stairs of the Wadsworth Atheneum. Goth gays wearing black on the U-Bahn looking at each other. Same ‘Acid’ shirt, but now Mikiki’s precious Rick Owen’s sneaker boots are visible and their modified/hand-dyed (in tones of green blue white and black) tote bag is present at their feet. They are seated. The surrounding train car is grey.
