Neoliberal futures, cultural backlashes, and the politics of sex classification
Until the last decades of the twentieth century, state enforcement of M/F sex binary had little to do with what we now call transgender people. Sex classification operated as a legal instrument that worked in concert with cultural norms to subordinate women. As states slowly retreated from sponsoring the subordination of women, it became possible for sex reclassification policies to change to recognize the gender of trans people. But in the current moment the M/F issue is transforming into a different kind of political instrument. Social conservatives are weaponizing the sex classification issue while big business celebrates gender diversity of all kinds.
Keynote Speaker: John Greyson (hosted in conjunction with the Film Studies Association of Canada) Location: Buddies in Badtimes Theatre, 12 Alexander St. Time: Sunday, May 28, 7:30-8:30 (doors open at 7:00)
Once is Not Enough: Repetition in Sex, Activism and Opera
Why say it twice? The incessant repetition of a lyric phrase (spoken or sung) has been a foundational touchstone of operatic creation, activist mobilizing and sexual passion across cultures and millennia. Freud identified incessant repetition as the 'repetition compulsion', focusing on our repressed need to name what is unheimlich (un-secret) again and again, with unheimlich elaborating that paradox of repression and expression (the 'undecidable' in Derrida's sense) that engages the uncanny. However, artists and activists as diverse as DV8, Glass, Beyonce, Lepage, Cork/Blythe, Saga Collectif, and Steyerl all employ lyrical repetition in their operatic spectacles of sex, bodies and social change in ways which exceed this prison yard of the unconscious. In this keynote event, varied recurring and repetitive examples from opera, activism and sex will be rehearsed in relation to examples from Greyson’s recent digital films, Fig Trees, Last Car Jericho and Towel.
Financial support for this session was provided by the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences.
