Last book launch of F.R.DAVID – “Erratum”:
Music to study/relax too

Since 2007, F.R.DAVID was concerned with reading & writing in the arts (co-published by KW since 2017). Ending 17 years of publishing, editing and keeping this journal of private reading – and as a continuation of his A Year With… – Will Holder invites the public to a space for private reading.

Subject – as we are – to overwhelming and distracted conditions for reading & writing in public, and all subsequent “Errata”*, Will has invited Berlin-based Oùat (Simon Sieger piano, Joel Grip double bass, Michael Griener drums) to play “Music to study/relax to”, with drinks, for five hours.

In addition, Anthony Elms has been commissioned to write a vocal score for the evening. Duration should collapse any expectations of its being entertaining, and the presence of 24 issues of F.R.DAVID might slowly encourage people to read, silently; to each other, to everyone; or say anything they like. (Open mic).

* Following an open call, this is—the very last issue—a collectively-compiled “Erratum”, or addendum [if you will] to the twenty-three issues from 2007 until now.
