An artist,
writer and, as DJ, a veritable steward of the New York nightlife scene, Juliana
Huxtable will deliver a mix of performances and readings tomorrow night at
Franklin Street Works through the signature personas of Internet-addicted
cyborg, priestess, witch and trans girl. 
At a
time when such topics as LGBT recognition, sexual violence in the armed forces (click here for a related PA entry) and the creepy acquisition by a leading search engine of a series of leading military robot manufacturers pepper the news, her staple fascinations with human identity,
physicality, technology and the cross-fertilization of such themes could not be
more timely, and will be expressed with the help of friends from the fomenting Manhattan creative
underground.

Click here for a recent interview. She has appeared at Envoy Enterprises, Artists Space, the Brooklyn Academy of Music and other New York venues. The Juliana 1 video from her Vimeo channel has unrestrained observations on urban pretension, body objectification and gender expression in character-based video games. Get a feel for her punchy delivery in this hilarious segment from TMI:
