Kathy Acker: Come Taste My Hand


Come Taste My Hand is a video tribute to Kathy Acker created by Lance Olsen, Andi Olsen, & Trevor Dodge. It appropriates and manipulates a very short sequence of Jonathan and Felicity Dawson's 1997 documentary, No One Can Find Little Girls Anymore: Kathy Acker in Australia, while pla(y)giarizing passages from Acker's novel Blood and Guts in High School and chapter 17 of James Joyce's Ulysses. Come Taste My Hand premiered at the Nobodaddies International Festival of Postmodern Piracy & Transgendered Subjects at Kent State University, April 14 1999.
