INTRODUCTION: The concept of slow media is defined in opposition to the proliferation of “speedy” digital media practices we are surrounded with today, practices that seem to leave little time for reflection upon what it is we are even doing. As a set of practices, Slow Media emphasizes taking one’s time in terms of how we interact with and experience media f
orms, and by extension often how we interact with each other. Slow Mediademand our attentiveness and involvement in a way that differs substantially from faster, digital media. With this in mind, playing with Slow Media offer us new insights into our everyday media practices by revealing forms of interaction and engagement that we no longer seem to notice or pay attention to. The goal of this assignment is to reclaim, reflect upon and analyze some of these insights.
