What is an art of life for what feels like the end of a world? Techno, first and always a Black music, invites fresh sonic and temporal possibilities for this era of diminishing futures. In Raving McKenzie Wark takes readers into the undisclosed locations of New York's thriving underground queer and trans rave scene.
Extending the rave's sensations, situations, fog, lasers, drugs, and pounding sound systems onto the page, Wark invokes a trans practice of raving as a timely aesthetic for dancing in the ruins of this collapsing Raving to techno is an art and technique at which queer and trans bodies might be particularly adept, but which is for anyone who lets the beat seduce them.
