"...a psychedelic meditation on the alchemical ideal of the hermaphrodite. Lady Jaye and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge were notoriously involved in a romantic and artistic partnership, 'Breyer P-Orridge', one important aspect of which was their use of cosmetic surgery to more closely resemble one another. The film emphasizes their emergent similitude: the camera circles them as they sit back-to-back, and confronts them posing frontally, side-by-side, naked, and sphinx-like. P-Orridge's ideas about escaping the tyranny of DNA and evolving into a post-gender future through the use of art and technology figure in Gold through the orbits described by the camera's movements as well as a recurring image of a spiral staircase. If Silver represents the alchemical quest to transcend death, Gold is the pursuit of Godhead, or the radical transformation of self through the reunion of the halved masculine and feminine aspects of the human. Significantly, that pursuit is not undertaken by the lone magician in his study, but by two individuals engaged in a radical experiment in the relationship between self and other." - Elijah Burgher, C Magazine
