KEYNOTE AT NECRO-CON

A nightmare of a TED Talk from another dimension, where a teenage cult figurehead tries her darndest to reprogram the audience’s brains into welcoming a poisonous sea slug’s life-reducing sting. It’s a galactic explosion of pitch-black comedy, dissecting the ways language can rewire us and normalize violent, unnatural, radioactive ways of thinking and living. It asks: What happens when you no longer recognize someone you love?
