Hot Bodies_Stand Up
(2018)
Hot Bodies_Stand Up is the title of a musical performance for a performer, a sampler and video projector.
Borrowing from the vocabularies of stand-up comedy, live electronic music and documentary photography, it unfolds Gérald Kurdian's self-fictional journey through the revolutionary aspects of his sexuality.
Like a Dante going through afterlife, it sheds a humorous light on Donna Haraway's Cyborg Manifesto, Annie Sprinkle's Her-Story of Porn, Starhawk's political magic or Paul B. Preciado’s Contra-Sexual Manifesto by seeking the musical and performative transductions of the queer, fetish or ecosexual political alternatives they support.
