slow down London
Later this month will be a London event I feel like I can get involved in (unlike the G20 protests…what was it they wanted again?)
Slow Down London is a ten day festival that sets out to encourage Londoners to improve their lives by slowing down to do things well.
Also coincidently discovered Academic Earth this week, kind of Ted talks but with guaranteed PhDs. In Paul Bloom’s lecture “The Good Life” he refers to two solutions to the hedonistic treadmill: keep doing different things or just get off the treadmill.
The Slow Down folks want to get off.
