QT. Hey QT. XL Recordings. 2015. Digital video, 00:04:08. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MQUleX1PeA.
QT was a music project by A. G. Cook, Hayden Dunham, and influential trans producer SOPHIE. They only released one song, “Hey QT”. The song and video are framed as an advertisement for a fictional, futuristic energy drink. It is an excellent example of the simultaneously joyful and uncanny queer femininities portrayed in SOPHIE’s music. The visual and auditory aesthetics, elaborate metanarrative, and subsequent online debate about the merit of an ironic pop song situate this work firmly within internet culture.
