Based on the erotics of Brazilian post-feminist funk music, this lecture-performance comments, and deliberately acts upon video footage and music. While the material is live-edited together, Felipe Ribeiro attempts to perceive what kind of episteme is built by the performativity of female funk singers builds in, as well as its impact on Rio de Janeiro’s queer scene. In Brazil, Funk balls are known for their traditional chauvinism. Hence Felipe’s interest in excessively obscene lyrics and vigorous gestures that both women and queer men enact to confront the logics that for so long have objectified them.
