Table and chair; pen and paper; text and time : an exploration of handwriting. Everything goes faster and faster, though sometimes not. I want to talk about slowness in a sense—that it doesn’t matter how long it takes to make or to do something. Slow time or fast time, it’s about quality time. My goal is to expand a state of awareness, accountability for daily actions, and the potential for a richer spectrum of experience for individuals and communities through the example of handwriting.
