Summer Updates

This June I began a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellowship in Cinema & Media Studies at York University where I will be working with Janine Marchessault and John Greyson. My project entitled Excavating Technologies of Cultural Memory: Mining Canada’s AIDS Activist Video Archive was funded for two years. During this time I will be completing my manuscript, Radical VIHsion: Canadian AIDS Film & Video, and working on the HIV/AIDS activist video case study that is part of the Archive/Counter-Archive initiative.

As part of the Anti-69 Network that came out of the Anti-69 Symposium at Carleton University this spring, I have been up to a number of things:  I put out a graphic spoofing the Canadian Mint’s bizarre “Equality” coin, participated in a panel at Ottawa Art Gallery for 50th Anniversary of Action Canada alongside Tom Hooper and Carolyn Egan, and conducted an interview with long-time queer troublemaker Gary Kinsman for the forthcoming issue (#21) of Upping the Anti.

In addition to this ’69 related work, I’ve also finished my video for Knot Projections‘ first cohort of artists entitled Don’t Believe The Hype!. The video will be projected onto the side of a building in the so-called gay village in downtown Ottawa for the week leading up to, and the week of pride this August. I’ll also be giving a short artist talk followed by a panel of smart critical queers responding to the 1969 Criminal Code reform mythology that is the context for this piece.

I also have a short and pithy essay in the forthcoming issue of QED Journal (Summer 2019) entitled “I Still Hate New Year’s Day” reflecting on the double 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in the US and the 1969 Criminal Code reform in Canada. My friend and collaborator Yasmin Nair also has a good read on the 50th anniversary of Stonewall worth checking out as well!

Lastly, this year’s Sexuality Studies Association annual conference was a huge success in Vancouver with high turn out and fantastic panels, plenaries, and screenings.  We launched our new bilingual website, announced a new awards program, and have lots more in the works in the coming year. Dan Irving steps in as Chair and I’ve been elected as Vice Chair for the incoming 2019-2021 steering committee.  It’s going to be an exciting couple of years with the SSA!
