Transgender Warriors JOY 94.9 - LGBTI, LGBTIQA+, LGBTQIA+, LGBT, LGBTQ, LGB, Gay, Lesbian, Trans, Intersex, Queer Podcasts for all our Rainbow Communities

On our last episode of season 2 we interview the Melbourne-based writer, performer and graphic novelist Fury, one of the stars of the smash-hit show Gender Euphoria.

Fury is the queer, non-binary author of the stunning graphic memoir “I Don’t Understand How Emotions Work” that weaves straight forward dialogue with emotive imagery to mimic the drifting and coming-together of the conscious and subconscious; thought and emotion. It interrogates the notion of selfhood, asking the question: if who we are is constructed through our memories, what does that say about the integrity of our identities?

You can buy a copy of “I Don’t Understand How Emotions Work” here. 

Fury is also a prolific writer, whose work you can read on their website Fury Writes. 

Simona Castricum is an architecture academic, musician and designer from Melbourne. As an educator and PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne, her work explores gender nonconforming and queer intersections in architecture, the city and public space. Simona is one of Melbourne’s unique electronic music performers, and a community radio broadcaster on RRR FM. Simona is active in trans and gender diverse advocacy in music and the built environment as a design consultant, public speaker, and freelance writer.
