Slow Television Anyone?

Saw a small news report on the TV the other day about this...seems intriguing, and possibly even healthier than much of the crap that I feed my brain with on a regular basis. What does everyone else think?

I mean, could we do it here in the states? Do we have the patience for it? Is there a real NEED for it?

I am intrigued at the thought...I saw a short clip of a broadcast of a person sitting outdoors knitting. Monotonous but beautiful at the same time. Like when I put together a puzzle piece by piece and lose track of time...

Random thoughts from yours truly...

It's like relaxing looking at a fish tank or watching a waterfall. I think it forces a person to live inside their thoughts for a moment. So the only ppl that could not watch it if even for a short time are those who are running from themselves.

I'd probably be a sucker for it. I can't get enough of this. I want it to just play in the frame for you, but I don't know how to do that.

Here go



If they could have a couple of different camera angles, slow it down, stop the people have them look at the camera so I could focus on their faces and expressions, I'd really enjoy this. I like the idea of trying to figure out what they are thinking during the course of their day...

Other than, "who the heck is this weird chick with a camera and what is she staring at me for?!"

I love this slow-paced scene from Schultze Gets the Blues...

It could be because I'm weird or I'm obsessed with folk music and culture, either way, here it is:

I really liked this movie when I first saw it years ago. Zydeco loving Schultze in Polka crazed rural Germany. I still chuckle when I remember how Zydeco obsessed he was...lol

Well done YM!

The high def tvs make this nice. I would like to see waterfalls, maybe a water wheel turning at an old mill. Or pretty sailboats going by on a beautiful lake. And old time steam trains running against a mountain landscape.

I have uvers and have seen some channel on there that shows that same shit. It's cool for ten mins. If you're the kind of person that would like to watch the puppy bowl I think you may like it.
