For the final part of ‘reading in Reading’ David Conroy visits once again the group’s SUPERSTRUCTURE, with it’s ideas around perfect communication and how one body intermingles with another in the reading of a text. For his contribution Conroy has re-edited a number of motivational speeches he sourced online and, together with a group of friends, re-recorded them to create a stereo soundscape that asks the listener to question the source material’s advice to “be yourself”. The work perhaps proposes that authenticity and expression might be found precisely through being someone else. One of Conroy’s concerns in this project is the diminishing number of library users and the precarious state of local libraries, so to try and work againt this trend his recording has been turned into a unique vinyl record, an artwork, which is available for loan to users of Reading Central Library.
