BETRAYING GESTURES READING AND WRITING CLUB

2024
Project; workshops; Collins Dictionary pronunciation clips

​

Betraying Gestures Reading and Writing Club is a writerly project. It uses the online-available archive of native English speakers, cast by the Collins Dictionary, for their “pronunciation clips” of words from the English language. The clips amount to 20,321 words read by 44 different native English speakers. Open-to-the-public workshops invite participants to contribute by writing their own texts, conditioned by the constraints of the writing operation+from and for the appropriated archive. A plot emerges from these conditions, which will ultimately be performed by the native English speakers themselves, through a montage of the clips.
