Mono Kultur #39 – Terre Thaemlitz: The Arrogance of Optimism — 柏林 德國

mono.kultur #39 – Spring 2015 – Featuring electronic producer and political participant, Terre Thaemlitz.

Politics and the dance floor make for uneasy bedfellows, and it is this uneasiness that drives most of the work of Terre Thaemlitz, confronting head-on issues that are usually off limits in electronic music. Thaemlitz is a producer and DJ, also known under his monikers of DJ Sprinkles, Social Material, and K-S.H.E, among others. But she is also a writer, educator and activist of sorts, with very fluid notions of gender, switching continuously between male and female drag.
