LISTENING COLLECTIVELY, TOO, can make legible the performative record of our histories—spoken or embodied. cry$cross, a multidisciplinary artist and DJ based in Brooklyn, accompanies the text here by wrapping my words with a thirty-three-minute score (available to play at the top of the page). An invitation to hear, see, pause, and revisit a loop of sound’s potential; to float past memories and future desires into the present. Her deeply melodic tracks and transitions, often an ode to Black and Brown trans and queer community, function as an alternative citation between text and sound. She brings into the text a version of the club—allowing my writing to perform that unrestrained site for self preservation that allows you to create space on your own terms. Carefully coded into this context, cry$cross’s engagement with Simmons’s archive contributes to a mapping of new territories.
