7:00pm . Keith Hennessy & Jassem Hindi, future friend/ships

future friend/ships is made from oracles and puns and drones and childish dances.

projecting oneself in the future is more often than not reserved to a fragment of the world population. it is a privilege for those who can afford it. future friend/ships is about a different kind of projection… and a different kind of future. it is a gesture soiled by fragments of raging poetry, broken machines, dying animals, plastic flowers: things the world is made out of. we used arab future fiction and punk anxiety as excuses and models for irony and potential. We celebrate the poems of Nazik al Malaika and Donna Haraway, among other lost texts form a close past.

Keith Hennessy and Jassem Hindi describe their work as poetic reaction to all the madness in the world, as an anarchic-queer alternative discourse, which despite all of the fierce attacks it displays, is as much a magnificent declaration of love to a world as it could be.
