#partyberlin — Public Fediverse posts

🦄🎉📺 On Friday, we will VJ all night long at our beloved 'Gegen' party, inside the legendary Kit Kat Club in Berlin.🎊⚡
💣 For 8 hours we will loop, process and mix live our trippy, sexy visuals in the Dragon Floor, one of the many dancefloors in this fetish ⛓🔊 techno club, and the one focusing on industrial, harder techno music. 🔥 🐲 This dancefloor is named a metal sculpture of the head of a dragon that actually spits fire over people's heads...and tomorrow it will be us to handle the dragon 🥵

You may or may not read this concept. You may or may not actually attend this event, whether you say you are 'going', 'interested', or not – probably based on the GEGEN images you have seen online. The emojis in your comments may or may not express your excitement. You may be taking pre-party selfies in your bathroom mirror while asking: Are you skinny enough? Muscular enough? Passing enough? Is your image sexy/queer/transgressive/flashy enough? Pharmacopornographic capitalism markets an (anti-)aesthetic that makes you depressed. Affect economies financialize your subjectivity. 'Likes' and 'followers' consecrate pop/sub-cultural idols, exalted to the extent they seem authentic while producing influential miracles. You have been educastrated into both aspiring to and detesting these iconic standards, to fetishize every commodity and commodify your fetishes. It is enough to recognize this divisive and absurd spectacle, to understand its false tragicomic performance – for in death is also life and liberation is the reconquest of life.
Pleasure cannot flourish unless the false guilt of binaries is eliminated.
A free man is gay and loves women.
This is a question of survival at a time when algorithms influence our dates.
Leave your digital surveillance device at home (or in coat check).
Reinforce aniconic taboos.
Don't come as you are.
Come as you are told not to be.
Come as you never thought you wanted to be.
Come dance together, as limp-wristed dykes or hard-bodied twinks, in the lysergic shadows of the fog machine.
Plot polymorphic perversions.
Mix straight fantasies with queer dark room desires.
Release your aesthetic potential.
Come as the image you hate.
Destroy your self-image.
Be GEGEN Image.
