Speed Reading (30s training), 2018/2020

Speed Reading (30s training) is a training session which brings together speed reading and eye movement exercises so that the viewer can consume the artwork as fast as possible while optimizing themselves. The text played back during the exercise was written as fast as possible, too, in an attempt to accelerate and synchronize the speed of production and consumption. Will you be able to keep up? Speed Reading (30s training) is based on Speed Reading (2018), a 16-channel installation produced in collaboration with Anna-Luise Lorenz for Stadtbibliothek Stuttgart.

Speed Reading is part of FitArt – Connected in Isolation.
