Alli Logout (they/them) is just a black, sex non-conforming filmmaker and performance artist
Whose work explores the south, the abject, and also the human body. They create cinematic social experiments in collaboration with non-professional actors to writer counter-narratives from inside their very very own communities and subcultures. Centering Blackness and Queerness within the Southern, the creation of the identities, and their deconstruction, Logout’s work makes use of the materials of lived-in tales to propose a brand new type of being, not quite as a dream, however with foot securely planted in the now. They hold a BFA in Media Studies from UNT and had been recently a 2019 resident at ACRE (Artist’s Cooperative Residency & Exhibitions). Their work was seen nationwide and internationally, including exhibitions and tests during the SOMArts Cultural Center in bay area, BFI Flare, London, Mix NYC, nyc, plus the Korea Queer heritage Festival, Seoul. Their film Lucid Noon, Sunset Blush (2015) won ‘Best Feminist Short’ during the Scottish Queer Global Film Festival. Logout can be the journalist and vocalist for the punk band, Special Interest.
