Chicano cyberpunk performer Guillermo Gomez Peña discusses America's
fears about immigration and his visionary work in a great RU
Sirius Show this week. And David Duncan, co-host of NPR's Biotech
Nation, is on NeoFiles.
Guillermo Gomez Peña: One of the things that never ceases to amaze me
is how many audience members are willing to take off their clothes
when you create the right conditions. And I'm not talking about youth.
I'm talking about doctors, lawyers, dentists, nurses… "normal people."
Given the right condition, they're pretty much willing to cross any
border you present to them. And this is the subtext of the show. The
subtext is… borders are not prohibition lines. A border is an
invitation to cross.
