Jon Davies contextualizes Ryan Trecartin's video epic, A Family Finds Entertainment within the larger scope of queer cinema and performance, drawing a direct line between Trecartin's exhausting, A.D.D fueled troupe of misfits and the earlier cinematic and performance work of Jack Smith. Extending from a history drag, self-aware performance, and camp, A Family Finds Entertainment is an impression of a new generation of queer culture on the Internet. Trecartin is quoted "We consume and consume and puke, more than fetishize the objects and information we use [...] We don't act inside or outside of consumer culture, entertainment, or art culture, we consume and translate. We are a by-product of it."
