The Culture Whore’s DOWNLOAD is a journey through cyberspace, reflecting on how technology has empowered our community, marking this moment in time as a screenshot of love, and archiving our creations for future generations.

A matrix of musical wizards will keep the beat as we scroll through electronic sounds of techno, house, club & disco with DJs Katie Rex, Sadaf, David Sokolowski and JX Cannon. Live performances will celebrate the eclectic virtuosity of our scene with genderbending dance by Davon Rainey, sexy post-Internet industrial sounds by Zebulon Gone, outrageous punk drag from Chris of Hur and and triumphant neo soul from Destiny, formerly Princess Nokia.

Explore the transgressive value of digital reality as we co-opt aesthetics of surveillance in service of narcissistic pleasure. Live feed video installations will act as portals to into the future as they capture the crowd in real time, projecting our bodies into psychedelic screens in an endless loop, inspiring us to keep dancing until dawn.

The Culture Whore is a community of artists exploring queerness in all its forms by creating ephemeral spaces and permanent platforms that cultivate connectivity, inclusivity, free expression, and pleasure.

glistening in a sea of code
we see our reflections
refracted endlessly in the STREAM
documenting potentials
ARCHIVING realities
as we fragment
bodies, remember
shift, CONTROL
click, drag
troll, dump
