Performative Reading at SAFI FAYE STAGE (HKW)

Slowness Therapy’s performative reading is based on the writings of Paul Virilio, the behavior of Flash, the lazy man who works for the Zootopie administration, and the benefits of ecological degrowth theorized by French economist Timothée Parrique.
Taking time, aiming for the long term, is no longer part of today’s language. We need to work fast, travel fast, communicate fast...
But gaining time has cost us the world.
Let’s see how philosophers, historians, artists, ecologists and sociologists analyze our relationship with time.
It's not enough to say that everything is moving too fast, that everything is accelerating: massive political, social, physical, sensory, spatial and historical changes are at work.
Are you ready for a new experiment?
Let yourself be carried away by the Slowness Therapy.
