ABSTRACT

This is a collaborative trans-atlantic meandering around our respective research fields, interjected with archival traces of our performances. Alongside us are The GUIDE, and #Sergina. The GUIDE is a survival praxis of how the Black identity performs in anticipation of being trapped in the gaze of being processed as other; a pedagogical deployment of research and critical theory from Black studies, Post-Colonial studies, and Black Feminist studies. #Sergina is a multi-bodied multi-locational drag queen who sings songs about love, lust, and loneliness in the digital age, alone and with others, performing on readymade platforms of Google Hangout, Skype, Zoom, Instagram and so on. What follows is a trans -racial -temporal -geographical edit of our side by side evaluation of where we are - or not.

We are calling this our Mixtape/ Shuffle Play.

摘要

这是跨大西洋的合作，围绕我们各自的研究领域蜿蜒曲折，插入了我们表演的档案痕迹。与我们并肩作战的还有 The GUIDE 和#Sergina。指南是关于黑人身份如何在被困在被处理为其他人的凝视中的预期中表现的生存实践；黑人研究、后殖民研究和黑人女权主义研究的研究和批判理论的教学部署。#Sergina 是一个多身体多地点变装皇后，她独自或与他人一起演唱关于数字时代的爱、欲望和孤独的歌曲，在 Google Hangout、Skype、Zoom、Instagram 等现成平台上表演。接下来是跨种族、时空、地理编辑我们对我们所处位置的并排评估。

我们称其为我们的 Mixtape/Shuffle Play。
