"I am present in every scene; the camera, the context and often the performance; but I am never named, like whiteness itself." - K.Thorne
"Starring Jamaica born poet, Courtnay McFarlane, Whatever takes up the thorny issues of race and identity in an elegant weave of experimental portrait, racial exposition, diary work and 'coming out' film. Animated, funny and reflective, McFarlane's insistance on the political motivations behind private conceits inform the swarm of white woman images which surround him." Mike Hoolboom
"The ambiguity in style mirrors the way in which a 'white girl' may or may not experience race growing up in North America." Chris Eamon
