The Cryptodrone Sequence

THE CRYPTODRONE SEQUENCE is a simulation glitch; a cipher; a queer assemblage diary with a cut-up persona—much like Kathy Acker's Janey Smith from Blood and Guts in High School; an anarcho-punk-bot-tremor using as its source material a technical handbook on computer network security, as well as some chewed-up texts from Jean Genet, Édouard Glissant, Clarice Lispector and others who together constitute this poetic intervention. This booklnegth poem speaks into a larger body of art-making that pulses at the intersection of race, technology, and the occult—one signaling expressions of blackness that subvert their mediating technologies.
