Dysfluent Issue 2: Stammering Pride

Stammering pride has emerged as a compelling movement in the cause for self-affirmation, dignity and equality for people who stammer. But what does it mean to be proud of something you associate with struggle and pain? Dysfluent Issue 2 is a 110 page compilation of interviews and visual artwork celebrating and challenging stammering pride. Each interview is set in Dysfluent Mono, a font representing the person’s stammer. The expressive, typographic illustrations are inspired by the uniqueness of the interviewee’s voice. The magazine creatively questions society’s obsession with hyper-fluency which leaves little room for organic moments in language. Featuring contributions from Patrick Campbell, Penny Farrell, Jack Nicholas, Kristel Kubart, Ruban Pillai, Audra Wolowiec, Willemijn Bolks, Paul Aston, JJJJJerome Ellis, Making Waves, Puneet Singh Singhal, Maya Chupkov. Dysfluent is a collaborative, creative practice about stammering. Through art, design, curation and writing, it intersects the lived experience of stammering with creativity, disability and activism. Dysfluent is led by Conor Foran and collaborates with people who stammer, artists, speech therapists, academics, and organisations.
