WORKSHOP (3.30 - 6 PM):
In this informal workshop, Otherness Archive creator Sweatmother and Max Disgrace - will lead an open discussion and screening featuring films from Otherness Archive and Max’s personal film work. The workshop will focus on the structure of film and how we, as trans people, can use the film's structure in experimental ways, in order to create new hybrid forms of erotic storytelling through the t-masc gaze.

We will focus on cinematic tools that can be used to communicatee one's desire. In this selection of moving image work, the artists make particular use of text, found footage, interviews and the camera to express desire and how the camera can be an extension of the phantom limb - which we will explore collectively through the group discussion.

About the Films:

Fly Hole • Malic Amalya • United States • 2018 - 3 min

Godasses Part lll: Jamal Phoenix • Emre Busse • Germany • 2022 - 8 min

For the final instalment in his GODASSES trilogy, Emre Busse conspires with trans porn talent Jamal Phoenix to redefine the desirable body, questioning and destabilising the relationship between viewer and performer.

Transmasculine Hole of the Universe • Genevieve Kuzak • United States • 2021

Transmasculine Hole of the Universe seems to start out as an interview between two trans men. However, as the interview carries on, the lines between fantasy and reality become more and more blurred.

Easy Rider • Julian Konuk • United Kingdom • 2022 - 6 min

Easy Rider is soft porn comedy, mixing play, humor, and bodily fragmentation. This film begs the question: what is a blowjob?

2 or 3 Things I Like About Him • Paul Stümke, Billy Vega, Jamal Phoenix • Germany • 2021 - 15 min

2 or 3 Things I Like About Him is an attempt to create a subjective gaze at a professional porn set. Contrasting the proximal POVs of performers Jamal Phoenix and Billy Vega with an at times tableau-vivant-like outside perspective, it oscillates between intimacy and distance.

Spictacle II: La Tortillera • Xandra Ibarra • United States • 2014 - 4 min

La Tortillera shows artist Xandra Ibarra in character as La Chica Boom, as she performs one of her ‘spictacles’ - Ibarra’s term for “camp spectacles of Mexican and Mexican-American myths that render the colonial gaze laughable.”
