In ADHD Outtakes Nattyraver documentary, the videographer and his subject, Natty, unmake the stability of documentary and self to let us better see her. We witness her breaking of self and this provides a fragmentary presentation where the end result is not some send up of truth, or its opposite, some ironic play with a form of unbelieving, but a momentary, critical and therefore satisfying knowing of a troubled self.
To be productively queer was never simply to copy and mock, even when marked with a flouncy flourish or some serious realness, it was always to do so with an actual change in mind: change in form as well as in seeing and being. If the self-conscious, self-aware, self-evident copy is no longer queer at all, no longer productive, I suggest instead that we must constantly adapt our forms to allow for that truly unsettling wedge that produces for viewers and makers alike queer ways of seeing and knowing that rub the wrong way, in the name of what is right: differences and dissonances that matter.
