But there was a shock in store for one of these scientists, Professor Jim Fallon, when he discovered that he had the profile of a psychopath. And the reason he didn't turn out to be a killer holds important lessons for all of us. We also meet a man who is using this new understanding to rewrite our ideas of crime and punishment.

How have trans people used audiovisual media to create new forms of community, identity, and desire? How have Black trans and Indigenous Two-Spirit people used film to expose and craft ways to collectively survive colonialism, racial capitalism, and the prison industrial complex? What challenges or paradoxes do audiovisual media pose to trans struggles for self-determination and liberation? How has “trans” changed over time and in different places? What is trans cinema? This class will analyze a variety of trans-made feature films, shorts, television shows, YouTube videos, and web series that span modes and genres, including drama, sci-fi, comedy, documentary, experimental, and pornography. We will also compare trans-made media to mainstream representations of trans people. Although the course’s primary focus is on audiovisual media made in the United States and Canada, we will also examine films from Europe, Asia, and Africa.

  • This PDF Contains the Complete Keywords Section of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly, Volume 1, Numbers 1–2
    This PDF contains the complete Keywords section of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly, Volume 1, Numbers 1–2. Downloaded from http://read.dukeupress.edu/tsq/article-pdf/1/1-2/232/485677/19.pdf by guest on 27 September 2021 KEYWORDS Abstract This section includes eighty-six short original essays commissioned for the inaugural issue of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly. Written by emerging academics, community-based writers, and senior scholars, each essay in this special issue, ‘‘Postposttranssexual: Key Concepts for a Twenty- First-Century Transgender Studies,’’ revolves around a particular keyword or concept. Some con- tributions focus on a concept central to transgender studies; others describe a term of art from another discipline or interdisciplinary area and show how it might relate to transgender stud- ies. While far from providing a complete picture of the field, these keywords begin to elucidate a conceptual vocabulary for transgender studies. Some of the submissions offer a deep and resilient resistance to the entire project of mapping the field terminologically; some reveal yet-unrealized critical potentials for the field; some take existing terms from canonical thinkers and develop the significance for transgender studies; some offer overviews of well-known methodologies and demonstrate their applicability within transgender studies; some suggest how transgender issues play out in various fields; and some map the productive tensions between trans studies and other interdisciplines. Abjection ROBERT PHILLIPS Abjection refers to the vague sense of horror that permeates the boundary between the self and the other. In a broader sense, the term refers to the process by which identificatory regimes exclude subjects that they render unintelligible or beyond classification.

  • NEWS RELEASE Sentosa Spooktacular: There Will Be No Fort
    NEWS RELEASE Sentosa Spooktacular: There Will be No Fort Siloso Halloween venue for Sentosa Spooktacular transforms into an immersive haunted village, Laddaland One of the many houses featured in haunted village Laddaland in Sentosa Spooktacular 2014 Singapore, October 2014 ― Sentosa Spooktacular returns this Halloween with a renewed, more immersive and integrated experience for visitors, where the boundaries of once Fort Siloso and new haunted village Laddaland will be blurred. This is the result of a returning partnership between Sentosa Leisure Management Pte Ltd and Thai film production studio, GMM Tai Hub Co. Ltd (GTH), as both organisations combine their expertise in destination and production capabilities to deliver the experience of being enveloped in a bone-chilling walkthrough for horror fans. All 40,000 square metres of Fort Siloso will be transformed into a haunted residential zone, and visitors to Sentosa Spooktacular’s Laddaland will venture through basements and houses just as how they would explore a new neighbourhood they just moved into. Visitors will experience an extended walkthrough each lasting about 20 to 30 minutes, and make a prolonged heart-pounding journey as they brace themselves for anticipated twists and turns, as well as sudden shocking moments. Fort Siloso’s combined natural settings, existing artilleries and tunnels present excellent assets to transform into the interior of houses and facility buildings, tracing the journey of spirits and souls who once lived in those houses, and may still lurk in the dark. The transformation of Fort Siloso into Laddaland in Sentosa Spooktacular 2014 is based on GTH’s well-received movie, Laddaland; story has it that a family of four started on a new life journey and moved into Laddaland, ready to settle in a beautiful home they could call their own and live their dreams.

  • Banjong Pisanthanakun, Paween Purikitpanya, Yongyoot Thongkongtoon, Parkpoom Wongpoom Studio: GTH Year: 2008
    Title: Phobia/Si Phraeng Directors: Banjong Pisanthanakun, Paween Purikitpanya, Yongyoot Thongkongtoon, Parkpoom Wongpoom Studio: GTH Year: 2008 Phobia is an anthology consisting of four horror films which last between 20 and 25 minutes each. Prior to this collaboration, the four directors were nationally recognized film-makers: Banjong Pisanthanakun and Parkpoom 137 Thai Cinema Wongpoom both co-directed and wrote the box-office hit Shutter (2004); Paween Purikitpanya directed the horror-thriller Body #i9 (2007); while Yongyoot Thongkongtoon was known for popular queer comedies such as The Iron Ladies (2000), The Iron Ladies 2 (2003), and Metrosexual (2006). In Phobia each of the four stories revolve around the violation of social norms through violence, terror,, and fear, with unrelated yet themati- cally connected plots, By focusing on transgressions of social and religio- cultural norms, the stories comment on the dilemmas and anxieties of modern Thai society. In the first episode Happiness, a. young woman Pin (Maneerat Kham- uan) is confined to her apartment after breaking her leg in a car accident. The taxi Pin was riding in overturned after hitting a young man, andthe trapped Pin was forced to stare into the man's eyes as the life drained out of him. Sitting lonely and bored in her apartment after the accident, Pin starts to exchange text messages, beginning a virtual flirt after receiving a message from an unknown man. This finally results in the ghostly crash victim visiting her, who attacks Pin, leading to her falling from her high- rise apartment building and dying. Pin's failure was glancing into the eyes of a dying person, a taboo that was violated involuntarily, but nevertheless punished by the ghost of the deceased.

The previous coding of kathoey in popular discourse as being traditional is shifting to one that identifies ‘‘kathoeyness’’, or male effeminacy, with modernity. Recent incidents point to a discursive shift based on a purified nostalgia for Thai ‘‘tradition’’, which excises kathoey presence. In this article, I consider how social evaluation and moral legitimacy underscore the contemporary terrain of gender/sexuality and contra- dictory attitudes towards kathoeyness. I describe how the increasing visibility of male effeminacy provokes national anxiety, becomes associated with degeneracy, and is used to excise non-normative gender from recent reconstructions

Situated along the coast of Sentosa, Fort Siloso is known for its rich background; from serving as Singapore’s coastal defence in the 1880s, to being a prison camp during the Japanese Occupation of World War II. Its historical background makes it an ideal location to stage an immersive real-life haunted village experience.

Said Mr. Jimmy Wong, Chief Property Agent (and also Events Director), Sentosa Leisure Management Pte Ltd, “The historic site, Fort Siloso, has always had residents come and go since World War 2. It is a unique and ageless property which offers good potential for development. Our partnership with GTH to redevelop the area into Laddaland will feed an insatiable demand for fun and fresh scares.” The premier Thai horror movie maker GTH will be introducing new features to the development. Laddaland will house three features, each providing 20-30 minutes of prolonged horror at any one time.
