Hysteria about drugs and harm minimisation. It's always the same old story

So about those alleged DDoS attacks on Australia

Feeling Cosey? Or is it Tessa (NSFW)




More, tho let's be honest not that much more of Cosey can be found
 
I really wish that I could get to the ICA in October and see 'After Cease To Exist' again. The time I saw it was at a showing at the London Film Maker's Co-Op back in I'm guessing 1978 or more likely '79. This was not the live performance where they performed a new soundtrack to the film (which can be found in the TG24 box) This was a Sunday (?) afternoon showing with Gen, Sleazy, Cosey and Chris in attendance with Chris extolling loudly at the end in a high pitched voice that he had 'never been the same again' which did cause the audience to erupt in nervous laughter. See also Cosey at Hayward Gallery. My friend Paul also reminded me on Facebook last night that ACTE was also shown when TG played at Heaven in 1980 which we both were at

Art Sex Music: Cosey Fanni Tutti's autobiography to be published in May 2017

Art Sex Music (to be published by Faber) is the autobiography of a musician who, as a founding member of the avant-garde group Throbbing Gristle and electronic pioneers Chris & Cosey, has consistently challenged the boundaries of music over the past four decades.
It is the account of an artist who, as part of COUM Transmissions, represented Britain at the IXth Biennale de Paris, whose Prostitution show at the ICA in 1976 caused the Conservative MP Nicholas Fairbairn to declare her, COUM and Throbbing Gristle ‘Wreckers of Civilisation’ . . . shortly before he was arrested for indecent exposure, and whose work continues to be held at the vanguard of contemporary art, some of which resides as part of the Tate permanent collection.
And it is the story of her work as a pornographic model and striptease artiste which challenged assumptions about morality, pornography and art.
Art Sex Music is the wise, shocking and elegant autobiography of Cosey Fanni Tutti.
