Microdosing is the practice of consuming very low, sub- doses of a specific substance, generally a recreational or (un)prescribed pharmaceutical drug, with the intention of understanding how a very low dose can affect and slightly shift one's mood, perspective, and material. Typically explored in relationship to such experiences as depression, energy levels, libido, lucid visions, and dreams, microdosing could be approached as a renegade methodology, queering not just the potential of the body, but also the ways in which we inhabit radical time and space. What do you microdose? How does it support/ inform how you touch the world and how the world touches you back? Have you always wanted to try microdosing and never had the opportunity? What is microdosing beyond literal substance consumption? A feeling? A longing? A person? A fantasy? An element? A habit?I have come to find myself to identify as a microdoser across many realms, bringing me greater insight into my relationship to urgent desire, as well as my longing to inhabit the experience of finding pleasure in patience. I have also come to understand my trans- positionality beyond gender through microdosing, and how trans identification is about the shifting material hosted by my body. A material that I consider to be in collaboration with. Through creative methodologies I want to exchange microdosing experiences with you. This correspondence course will entail a creative exchange through whatever medium one chooses: writing, documented performance, sound, drawing, video, photography, scores, etc. Between each participant, a different short work will inform the next, creating an exquisite corpse. I will create the first and last response. These works will consider microdosing experience in each participant's life , with the invitation for the next participant to do the same, thus creating a correspondence of both creative and informational exchange. A digital course reader is available for participants to explore various relevant texts for educational purposes only.

1) READ

stalk the length of my body,

At the river

I fill the vessel

Kneeling, I push

Transcendental

looping words drowned themselves out;

White noise bliss.

Echoes of thoughts that cut me into pieces vanish

Fleshy, like the centre of the calabash.

With bare skin, like suckling pig;

I open myself to reincarnation.

I breathe slowly and deeply,

I arch my back and I part my ass

welcoming light and warmth inside me.

With my mind adrift; body purring gently,

care emerged

like never before.

2) BREATHE

3) WATCH

that's hot
that is hot
sure

(press images to play)

and in this now
I wish I could live inside you -
for your body to become our structure
our floor and walls, no longer squared but rope fluid and slop
for living to become fusing
embrace impossible entangled

but would we still know one another
would I feel you, for you
as my face disappears,
the hot instant of your touch only memory,
vanishing like the table where we now write,
the chair on which I sit, indistinct.

Our rush subsided, lost in constant waves

I kissed you goodbye in the hallway, yellow, 5 floors,
each one singing louder than the last

You were there
the weight of you
spread between the grip of thighs,
wrench of arms and fingers
and breathing shallow.
For a measure of time collapsed,
seconds unformed and wild
under the mutual pink of our tongues flash.

I try to steal you, us,
but it passes and slips.
These words an insufficient canister, only a brush for memory, for more dreams and eroticism. And my longing to hold, to be held in delicate loving matter.
