Text of the page (random words):
ch and memories of queers affected by hiv aids and related health troubles envisioning this organizing it supporting its materialization as a place to go research remember and hold has demanded distribution efforts by workers often volunteers who are well outside of film scenes while deeply inside of others queer non profits schools bars neighborhoods because the video is now also an installation this labor is less about distribution than emplacement or perhaps co emergence my materials sit alongside holdings that were already there my materials and the research and commitments that fueled them help identify other archival subjects and patterns of holding that always need our attention and care my memory practices align with those of others like curators and programmers alexis johnson and quetzal arevalo at one archives and library steering committee members mev luna and liza minno at the pat parker vito russo library at the center in ny and its archivist lou mccarthy quetzal alexis and alex at one archives staff room with donuts provided by q holding patterns takes an artwork that held jim and juanita in the linear and two dimensional form of a documentary and disperses these people and their conversations with me about aids and related concerns as material into a room where others join us it renders research as embodied and material and communal immersing a visitor into a space of study that holds vhs and digital video web links paper and fabric it asks visitors to consider the specific and interlocking patterns of the many media we use to hold onto people and their memories actions and desires in so doing more people can help carry their weight and beauty for which i am responsible also available for focused study are my 2024 zoom conversations with four contemporary aids workers jih fei cheng marty fink pato hebert ted kerr their wisdom creates other frameworks to hold and honor my ghosts and those who are beloved to others just so i n la holding patterns also invites people i met through their archival holdings mina kay meyer yolanda retter who i already knew and kenneth wiederhold who has hold in his name into the room i came to know them during one focused a little feverish and especially desirous day of research in september 2025 at the one archives hello welcome back at the archives where some of their things were already held we reintroduce these los angeles queers delightful powerful regular humans who organized partied got married had sex fought for queer and health care rights died of various illnesses and so much more to their local community inviting more deserved connection and care our engagement with some of their things demonstrates how research and sharing can lead to a kind of distribution that is saturated with the depth of a life lived and connections made indeed just last month at the beginning of my one heady research day i ran into these intrepid archivists working on their own project saying hi lynn ballen and i quickly realized we had met in the 1990s via yolanda retter that s how i knew she would be holding pattern s third los angeles subject there were many many to choose from each deserving of a vitrine and attendant attention barbara jo gehrke lynn ballen and luka fisher researching for a doc on the lesbian tide speaking of attention and care a teaching and learning guide will also be available at the two sites and online written and produced by graduate students chloe buergenthal and shwe ye shoon myat while further activating the installation space through suggested research practices creative embodied intellectual emotional their work is an example of the cross generational dialogue that is another heart of this and many activist projects production and distribution see above handshakes across time and inside spaces of community archival engagements a kind of distribution as labor and love through donation research and reanimation can be opportunities for patterning queer community across time and beyond death aligning political and cultural connections from the past and into rooms where people who are alive meet margaret rhee and eric rhein meet at the parkside premiere connecting through art by his lost love thus as part of my experiments in place based distribution in la holding patterns invites visitors to share material traces of grief through an exercise organized by the what would an hiv do collective we will also have two workshops about political grief the first in person at one archives the second online in november more forthcoming in ny the installation centers community made donations that hold memories of grief in light of aids precious objects that will be left for other s attention by visitors to the show when distribution is placed based activation artists can ask for more than viewing and attendees can do more that watch creating impact outside of capital as

discouraged words under trump plus a few more these words are disappearing in the new trump administration the new york times march 11 2025 my is a process and related methods 1 there are many some personal others specific my is not about anything as much as it is about everything because is my set of approaches to the world and its ideas and my is a set of orientations and related ideas and actions practices focused upon changing or celebrating material and ideological conditions my is not about and or or my is not about class the the environment the internet film video politics my family my friends my jewish non zionism my community or myself my is a set of methods to engage ethically and collectively in thinking teaching collaborating and making art and ideas about the issues and material conditions that concern me and others including all those listed above my is good work it is an ethical way to live learning from and with others i strive to change a world structured by arbitrary stupid binaries that are also hierarchies that apportion rights power access and ways of living unjustly male white rich poor north south nature culture road home abled sick well theory practice form content home work jewish my is because stupid binaries are mutually inflecting and dense my is a process and related methods to think and act past intertwined binaries it is an amplification or extension of my a technology it helps disrupt and refashion the world and how we live in it learning from and with others i strive to make a world structured by other my methods are grounded in process and based in collaboration power sharing being situated in a place and a community naming our shared and responsive ethics being aware of power in all circumstances celebrating and learning from seeking safety or harm reduction making use of hierarchies as needed flattening expertise as needed affording dignity agency and creativity to all self reflexivity and transparency 2 coda this brief and quick and easy to do exercise reveals as much as it obscures importantly many attributes i cherish dignity agency creativity community safety stay present the processes i use teaching art collaboration power sharing situated self reflexivity and transparency are strong as steel righteous traditions of thought still intact ethics harm reduction stupid binaries as importantly words that one would imagine to be utterly verboden non zionist class are currently left alive this must be because the censor is looking in the wrong directions or lets his stupidity or lack of information moving as fast as he is without a proper education allow for certain areas to stay unattended to or perhaps attended to but in ham fisted ways what seems clear to me is that without the words that have disappeared what i believe in have done and will do remains legible i wonder how many words would have to go before i too vanish in this quick and easy exercise i have chosen to entirely excise a word leaving no indication that it has disappeared bam certainly another way to embark on this good american work would be to mark the gaps ︎ with some transparency i helped the censor by preemptively striking a few terms he didn t know enough yet to pay attention to in the list above system queer ness woman lesbian movement sexuality muslim covid long covid long
