THE CULTURE ITSELF HAS DADDY ISSUES.
Intergenerational anxiety is the modus operandi for young people today. They at least fetishize but don’t socialize with their elders. They’re post-history and thus can only engage with The History as a sanitized procession of figural political phenomena OR as a vessel of overwrought nostalgia for a time of supposedly more authentic pleasures. They’re temporally stunted and digitally castrated.
At Wrinkle Queen, our mission is the erotic transfer of knowledge across generations. We believe the answer to youth disillusionment and Boomer resentment is a matter of exchange—wisdom, or whatever else—via communal pleasure IN THE DARKROOMS OF THE ARCHIVE.
