Terror.mov This was made about a month after 9/11, in Miami at FIU. It's extreme and if you're offended by sex and/or its equation with terror, please don't watch. It's up for a day and a half only; it's a work I just found again in my files. The equation of sex and terror and the con/figuration of the terrorist is a common trope; you find it 'in' Baader Meinhof, Weathermen, etc. It's also the terror of sex and sexual terror. I could go on theoret- ically, but prefer silence now. In Miami I was hysteric and exhausted; this inversion is one of the results. I made a number of pieces dealing with terror, anthrax, sexuality, pushing representation as far as I could. I 'like' this piece; I just don't want it in general circulation. - Alan http://www.alansondheim.org/terror.mov
