Disco Hospital Books & Records, the independent imprint based in Toronto, is pleased to announce the release of METHodology LP (Undetectable I). This LP phonograph is published in an edition of 200; with jacket, centre labels, and insert featuring artwork by Bill Thelen (USA).
METHodology is the first in a series of three vinyl phonographs that respond to issues of queer pleasure and pandemic, a project funded by the Canada Council for the Arts. The series, Undetectable: Queer Pleasure and Pandemic, explores and listens to queer sexualities, chemsex practices, public sex, and emerging queer cultural production models that respond to increasing global homophobia, transphobia, drag-phobia, violence, and silencing. METHodology LP focusses specifically on gay-, queer-, and trans-male identified chemsex practices.
True resistance is loud, and is rarely sober. This is audio harm reduction.
Music by Andrew Zealley. Words and voices by research study participants (including users, harm reduction workers, sexual space workers, artists and activists, and public health. Produced by House of Intergenerational. Mastered by Stefan Betke.
