Transecology
This keyword is inspired by P. Staff's multimedia art installation Conjunctions (2021).1 They write, “a conjunction of / touching you as the end of you—” with a curious syntactical slash between the preposition of and the gerund touching. As two planets conjunct—from our eye, a citrine stud pricking the darkness above our blue curve—they invent, over and again, their relationship. One unlivable. The other becoming so. What do they whisper to each…
Body, genre, apparatus: Re-reading Linda Williams on pornography
Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore
The following is an interview with author and activist Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore conducted by Che Gossett and Eva Hayward. Sycamore discusses how she uses fiction to work through historical traumas, inviting readers to imagine the AIDS pandemic as not simply memory but as continuing crisis that necessitates desiring into the archive so that we might begin to understand AIDS. Trauma cannot be historically rendered—this is the catastrophe of this…
Monica Jones
The following is an interview with activist Monica Jones conducted by Che Gossett and Eva Hayward. In this interview, Jones talks about her activism against the criminalization of sex work, recounting how the program Project ROSE, which was a revealing collaboration between the university and the police, functioned through carceral logics to detain and then according to a carceral economy of innocence, criminally prosecute or “reeducate” sex work…
Trans in a Time of HIV/Aids
Cecilia Gentili
The following is an interview with performer, activist, and advocate Cecilia Gentili conducted by Che Gossett and Eva Hayward. Cecilia Gentili is a longtime trans activist in New York City. Gentili has been involved in queer, trans, AIDS sex worker, and antiviolence organizing for decades. In this interview Gentili discusses her recent performance The Knife Cuts Both Ways, the limits of trans narratives and representation, and how she pushes at t…
Kiyan Williams
The following is an interview conducted by Che Gossett and Eva Hayward with Kiyan Williams, multidisciplinary artist and assistant professor at Virginia Commonwealth University. William's visual art—sculpture and video—on blackness and ecology, dirt and displacement, brings Black trans poetics, aesthetics, and politics to bear on questions of the afterlife of slavery and plantation geographies. Their work also engages Black trans archives and his…
Don't Exist
This note represents an effort to think together Afro-pessimism and trans studies
Impossibility Ofthat
Working with Jorge Luis Borges's The Book of Imaginary Beings, this essay shows how creaturely beings, or transfigurations, dramatize the afterlife of racial slavery, coloniality, the (con)temporality of HIV/AIDS, and how their im/possibility disturbs and breaks with the "order of things." While transitive and transversal in their potentiality for insurgency, Imaginary Beings and Fantastic Zoology also always carry a colonial logic, a conquest pa…
Transxenoestrogenesis
This section includes eighty-six short original essays commissioned for the inaugural issue of TSQ: Transgender Studies Quarterly. Written by emerging academics, community-based writers, and senior scholars, each essay in this special issue, “Postposttranssexual: Key Concepts for a Twenty-First-Century Transgender Studies,” revolves around a particular keyword or concept. Some contributions focus on a concept central to transgender studies; other…

Sensational Jellyfish: Aquarium Affects and the Matter of Immersion
This essay combines impressions of the Drifters exhibit at the Monterey Bay Aquarium with reflections on how one might approach an encounter with a being whose ways of knowing and sensing challenge anthrocentric logics. Rather than view the immersive exhibit's jellyfishes as part of a romanticized nature in opposition to human culture or as sympathetic by virtue of some forced familiarity to humans, the author traces the path by which "jellies" h…
Ciliated Sense
Spider city sex
In her essay “Dungeon Intimacies” (2005) Susan Stryker offers “autoethnography” as a methodology for theorizing embodiment and politics. She invites us to see how corporeality situates more generalizable knowledges. Following Stryker, this essay explores male-to-female transsexual transitioning in an urban setting, San Francisco's Tenderloin, through bodily experience. These accounts might appear as drifts in personal recollection, but they are m…
Fingeryeyes: Impressions of Cup Corals
In When Species Meet (2008) Donna Haraway proposes that creatures' identities and affinities emerge through their encounters, their relationships. Following Haraway's lead, I attend to how different species sense and apprehend one another, leaving impressions-concrescences of perceptual data, or texture. This essay reports on fieldwork alongside marine biologists and with a population of cup corals (B. elegans) housed at the Long Marine Laborator…
