Rupaul's last mini challenge was a drag version of Samuel Beckett's seminal "Not I"

Textfiles of Desire @ Transmediale 2013 BWPWAP

Had the honor and the pleasure of contributing to this panel that took place today in Berlin's Haus der Kulturen der Welt. Was fabulous

Also it's a good excuse to feature this video here (again)

Two people I think work well together

Both have what Rupaul would describe as Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent.


God Bless America

recently i was mentioning Wittgenstein in a discussion

and specifically his idea at the end of the Tractatus, according to which "Whereof one cannot speak, thereof one must be silent." Subi just showed me this video, and I really think it is not possible to say anything about it.

Charo

Egyptism

Egypt was always at the center of attention and an object of fascination for cultural orientalists. I'm sure there are many historical, mythological and imaginary reasons for that special occidental love, and I would leave it to the theoreticians to explain. I'm as usual fascinated with the fascination and the way it evolved into pop culture. So here are two amusing/disturbing 20th century performative moments that materialize this perversion:

Wilson Keppel and Betty doing their popular Sand Dance routine (c. 1933): And the gorgeous Kate Bush making her properly insane and absolutely not PC contribution to the discourse (1979):

Sometimes I like to go mainstream

So I got my visa today but apparently the Jewish god isn't really happy about it and she decided I should pay for my hitbolelut, so here I am in bed with a high fever. Luckily, family guy has a 10th season and Yoni "saba" Silver sent me this. Yes it has like 20 million views but it's still a cool addition to the blog.

I will always love Dolly

and her insane collection of wigs The woman is a walking work of art

James is coming

My dear friend Lady James Unsworth is coming all the way from London to stay in the kitchen and also do an exhibition at this place in Neukölln

Don't go breaking my heart

Like many other gruesome goodies, this was also waiting for me on Yair Reshef's website. The reason I like it (apart from the narrator's voice) is that it takes a metaphor seriously, and we like to do that.
I think I need to do this live

I would try it

This Is from the PETA blog, three years ago (Subi just showed it to me today, what can I do).

Foolin

Writing a paper about Kierkegaard, I find myself once again spending considerable amount of time at the computer, which of course means considerable youtube time, which brought me back to this one:
