“I Am Sitting in a Beat” : sonic experiments

<p>DB10: Klein, Kristeva, and Cop Cars! </p><p>We navigate the wreckage of straight desire and the shadow spaces of queer longing in this unhinged exploration of gut fantasies, suburban beats, and the surveillance of pleasure. What connects curdled milk to ADHD stimulants? How do abandoned wedding venues become sites of homosocial possibility? And why does playing Nutbush in a disco-lit bushland feel like both liberation and entrapment?</p><p>We sit in a room with Alvin Lucier’s sonic experiments, and the spectral lisp of post-dental trauma, all while interrogating how beat spaces get policed like family structures and desire gets regulated through ritual.</p><p>This is part three of the masculine mess, featuring Bronski Beat, cops, cruising, and lots of problematic interruptions. It’s DB10, chaotic and strangely intimate: neuro-divergent, psychoanalytic, and definitely pushing boundaries. </p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/db10_podcast?igsh=MXJtaXRpaXl4dndnMA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"><em><strong>Instagram DB10</strong></em></a></p><p>Works cited:</p><p><a href="https://www.sadiebarnette.com/projects/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Sadie Barnette, <em>Living Room, </em>2017</a></p><p><a href="https://www.tate.org.uk/press/press-releases/tate-acquires-archie-moores-golden-lion-winning-kith-and-kin-in-partnership-with-queensland-art-gallery--gallery-of-modern-art" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Archie Moore, <em>kith and kin</em>, 2024 </a></p><p><a href="https://phillipgeorge.net/borderlands/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Phillip George, <em>Borderlands</em>, 2005</a></p><p><a href="https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.1086/448884" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Berlant, Lauren, and Michael Warner. &quot;Sex in public.&quot; <em>Critical inquiry</em> 24.2 (1998): 547-566.</a></p><p><a href="https://www.plutobooks.com/9780745343846/family-abolition/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">M.
