Abstract

No Theories for the Liquidity of This Desire is a visual and poetic meditation on desire as an embodied practice of cartography. The short film responds to and reflects (on) Dionne Brand's liquid theories of self-creation and way-finding as a Black being in diaspora. A collection of still frames accompanies the transcription of the original work, which can be accessed in full at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fdymeQxPYs&t=183s. No Theories was shot in Anguilla during February 2021. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
