(tell me why): The Epistemology of Disco is an often humorous, at times sarcastic and poignant look at the role that disco music has played in the formation of gay male identity. The piece challenges the notion of disco as merely a "leisure activity" by positing disco as an important cultural space created as an expression of gay sexuality.
