Biography

Canadian gay cult figure, underground filmmaker, actor, photographer and writer. While still in his 20’s, Toronto-based Bruce LaBruce edited and produced "homo punk" fanzines and super-8 movies ("Boy/Girl," "I Know What It's Like To Be Dead," "Bruce and Pepper Wayne Gacy's Home Movies," "Slam!") which contributed to the launch of the so-called radical Homocore or Queercore movement in Canada and elsewhere.

In 1991 LaBruce released his first feature length film. Shot on super 8 and blown up to 16mm, "No Skin Off My Ass" - which explores the sordid relationship between a queeny hairdresser (played with little effort by LaBruce himself) and a mute, handsome young skinhead (played quasi-convincingly by his then-boyfriend Klaus Von Brucker) - went on to become a world-wide cult hit. His follow-up feature "Super 8 1/2" 1994 - shot in both super 8 and (mostly) 16mm - is a harrowing cautionary bio-pic about LaBruce's rocky rise to cult stardom. LaBruce plays an aging porn star/director whose career is on the skids as he is unable to cope with his new found fame. After meeting an underground lesbian film-maker, he consents

to appear in a documentary about his sordid life, only to realize that she is ultimately exploiting him to further her own career. "Super 8 1\2" went on to become a film festival circuit favorite, earning slots in such high-profile festivals as Sundance, London, Berlin, Dublin, Thessaloniki, Toronto, Vancouver, San Francisco, Tokyo, etc.

LaBruce's "Hustler White," made in collaboration with L.A.-based photographer Rick Castro, was released in 1996. Co-starring supermodel Tony Ward (ex-consort of Madonna and Christina Applegate) and LaBruce himself, this 16mm feature premiered at Sundance and similarly went on to become a film festival and cult favorite.

What does Generator 4/6 mean for Bruce LaBruce?

Bruce LaBruce is a Generator in Human Design – an energy type with a defined Sacral Center. Generators make up about 36% of humanity and possess an enormous, sustainable life force energy.

The Generator's strategy is to respond to impulses from life rather than initiating. When the Sacral Center responds with a clear "yes" (a gut feeling, an inner spark), that's the right path.

When Bruce LaBruce lives in alignment with their design, they experience deep satisfaction and fulfillment. The Generator's not-self theme is frustration – a sign that the sacral energy isn't following the right things.

Bruce LaBruce has Emotional Authority – the most common authority. Decisions should never be made in an emotional high or low, but only when emotional clarity settles in. "Sleep on it" is meant literally here. The emotional wave needs time to run its course.

Bruce LaBruce carries the profile 4/6 – Opportunist / Role Model. The 4th line represents the Networker: influence and impact unfold through personal relationships and a strong social network. The 6th line represents the Role Model: a life path in three phases – first experimenting (until ~30), then observing from the "roof" (until ~50), and finally authentically embodying the role model.

The incarnation cross "Right Angle Cross of Tension 4" describes the overarching life purpose and direction of Bruce LaBruce in Human Design. It consists of the four gate activations of Sun and Earth (personality and design) and only becomes felt when one lives their strategy and authority.
