In this live performance, the artist works with his synth methodology to synthesize a “woman” who is a reflection of their past self. Not only is this film technically using many tools and machines, it draws a parallel with the trans body and how our bodies are tools of equipment – tools to guard us, tools to help us “pass”, tools towards euphoria, discovery and experimentation.
