Slow Reading Club (SRC) is a semi-fictional reading group initiated and run by Bryana Fritz and Henry Andersen. It began by rehearsing alternatives to the kinds of reading learned in school, actively suppressing semantic content through strobe lights, strange postures, sociality, and toxins. SRC takes ‘readership’ as a means to stimulate the contact zones between reader and text, text and text, reader and reader. 'RÉPONDEUR' is SRC’s first monograph and a companion to the group’s exhibitions and collective reading sessions. Imagined as a scroll, with a rhyme scheme structure and typesetting by Will Holder, the book brings together texts previously included in SRC readers, an extensive interview of SRC by Alicja Melzacka, new texts by Joyelle McSweeney and Bill Dietz, as well as visual work by SRC.
