SUMMARY:Blue Lightning Ghost Train: Inpatient Program 1
DESCRIPTION:@CPR DOUBLE FEATURE\nUnder the Hood: Fiducial Romance by geo blake\nBlue Lightning Ghost Train: Inpatient Program 1 by Kerosene Jones\nCPR – Center for Performance Research\nSaturday\, May 10 at 7:00 PM\nTickets $0-$25\, pay what you can. \nJoin us Saturday\, May 10 for a double feature of new performance works by geo blake and Kerosene Jones presented at CPR – Center for Performance Research\, for the artists’ MFA thesis projects in the Performance and Interactive Media Arts (PIMA) Program at Brooklyn College. Proceeds go to Bluestockings Cooperative\, who will be providing Fentanyl and Xylazine testing strips on-site to attendees. \nThrough an interplay of live performance and mediated fragments\, Under the Hood: Fiducial Romance\, by geo blake featuring Alanna Archibald\, examines the intimacy embedded in economies of care\, trust\, and extraction. Merging movement\, voice\, transducers\, and projected imagery\, and drawing from the iconography of the automobile as both a site of fetishization and labor\, Under the Hood engages with themes of objectification\, autonomy\, and the blurred lines between maintenance and possession. \nBlue Lightning Ghost Train: Inpatient Program 1 by Kerosene Jones is the first phase of an experimental song\, video\, and performance cycle using archival materials to explore queer responses to harm reduction\, particularly in regards to the ongoing opioid crisis\, and drawing from Jones’s personal experiences with opioid addiction. The development of the Blue Lightning Ghost Train series has received support from New York State Council on the Arts (NYSCA)\, and a CUNY Social Practice Fellowship\, and features mix engineering by Bassel Al-Rahim. \nTickets can be purchased here!

SUMMARY:Elevating Black Queer Ancestors: Embodying Black Queer Pasts\, Envisioning Black Queer Futures
DESCRIPTION:Elevating Black Queer Ancestors: Embodying Black Queer Pasts\, Envisioning Black Queer Futures is a workshop series that explores the role of embodied experience in recovering\, interpreting\, and reimagining the uses of Black queer histories.
