Premièrement Comme Tragédie
With a friend we play a game, negotiating sex and risk but providing only evasive deflection and questions.
My friend and I negotiate with each other, I to him in French and him to me in English. We fuck.
The scene plays again, simultaneously but we play the role of the other person. Him to me in French and me to him in English. We switch roles.
The negotiation scene and subsequent sex act are transcribed and we learn each other's part and switch roles. The two tapes are then layered onto each other so both scenes play out simultaneously. There are subtitles running during the whole time.
