Creativity and community in the South London Review of Hand Dryers

"There is a weird, very British, eccentric attachment to hand dryers..." Wedgely Snipes (not his real name) is the editor of the South London Review of Hand Dryers. A lovely newsprint zine printed by Newspaper Club, it's simultaneously a fond parody of the London Review of Books, a silly excuse for writing about hand dryers, and a heartfelt experiment in creativity and collaboration. As you'll hear from our conversation, Wedgely genuinely loves hand dryers, but he's also obviously aware of the silliness of the whole thing, and it's this balance of commitment and self-awareness that makes the humour in the zine so infectious.
