We ask ourselves: What does a DIY space look like on the virtual plane? With this, we are delighted to present our events \u2018QueerCutPro\u2019, \u2018Chosen Family Feud\u2019 and \u20182:59s\u2019 as our performance platform exploring this question.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A desire that has remained consistent for the past 4 editions of QPC was to stimulate intergenerational dialogue amongst queer kin. And for year 5, we wanted to continue that line of discourse through an event we call \u2018Ask an Elder.\u2019 Having an elder is such a rich experience, but only a few possess. With this initiative, we hope to inspire and reinvigorate more queer-elder bonds and connections for future generations to come.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are absolutely thrilled to share what we\u2019ve been cooking up for this year\u2019s edition and feel incredibly lucky to be able to assemble such a stellar group of queer artists, each diving into the unknown with us.

An Australian immigrant who grew up Anglophone in Montreal, Lucinda has a particular appreciation for how cultures intersect and interact, and how the liminal spaces created between cultures become rich territories for creative innovation and explorations of identity. This interest in liminal spaces and how we construct identity, both personal and collective, and how biology is and isn\u2019t malleable and how it affects our lived experiences of ourselves, is also informed by her queerness and the experience of living with an autoimmune disorder. Lucinda studied studio art at Concordia University and her many adventures over the decades have included playing saxophone and building ridiculous props for art punk bands My Dog Popper and Shlonk!, writing a weekly gossip and culture column under the nom de plume Miss de Meaner for the Hour weekly, working in media relations for Ninja Tune Records and Mutek, and writing production notes for film.
