The IDIOT is the alias of Theodor Wilson, a queer performing artist in Brooklyn, NY. He calls his style ElectroDrama because it combines trashy electronic riffs with melodrama narrative, and because his live shows incorporate theatrical devices. Similar genres are Post-Punk Cabaret, New Romantic, and Industrial Pop. Wilson is a trained pianist and can performs acoustic versions of his electronic numbers in the event of an emergency. The Idiot refers to his persona as a “grotesque bitch,” and a “harlequin.” In concert and promotional appearances, he wears articles of women's clothing, high-heeled shoes, and makeup, but insists he is not a drag queen, and that drag is “it’s own medium, with its own set of rules.” However, he does perform under the rap alias, “Ham Samwich,” a self-described drag queen to end all drag queens, whose numbers often appear in the Idiot’s live act. The Idiot released his first official album, called “JUVENAL!A,” in 2010. The title is a mis-spelling of the word juvenilia, meaning “works produced by an author when still young.” New material and free tracks can be found at his official website http://IDIOTSAYSYES.COM.
