Kaleidoscope is a 2015 extended play (EP) by Courtney Act.[1] According to Nylon, the EP is a "meditation on gender and the artifice that comes along with social constructions".[2]

Composition[edit]

According to Queerty's Timothy Allen, the title track "tells the story of how the traditionally separate colors of gender and sexuality are blurring into a kaleidoscope of possibilities".[3]
