Dr. Shana Ye shares how her research thus far has led her to the creation of her manuscript, Queer Chimerica: A Speculative Autoethnography of the Cool Child, which is a mix between autoethnography, science fiction, and queer theory.
In addition, Shana discusses with Elliott her thoughts on the relationship between queer fluidity and the fluidity of capital and labour, the development of queer theory in China, the relationship between queerness and physics, and much, much more!
Stay tuned to the end to hear a special reading from Queer Chimerica.
