Television at the speed of life.

Longform videos meant to be played for ambience: crackling fireplaces, train rides, sandy beaches, shots of the earth from space and knitting.

Slow TV, is a term used for a genre of "marathon" TV coverage of an ordinary event in its complete length. It was popularized in the 2000s by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK), beginning with the broadcast of a 7-hour train journey in 2009.
From Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slow_television


"Most art ... comes in espresso form: the complexities of human perception are picked when ripe, roasted to intensity, milled, tamped down, and infused into something that’s quickly consumed. It is surprising, then, to find a challenge to this ancient premise arriving in a novel entertainment form—suddenly everywhere—known as 'slow TV.'"


What Is Slow TV?

/r/SlowTV is for long-form ambient videos ten minutes or longer. Train rides, crackling fireplaces, shots of the earth from space, and more!

What Should I Post?

SlowTV is still a new and experimental concept, so we kept the rules minimal. Just make sure whatever you're posting ...

  1. Could be considered relaxing or ambient
  2. Doesn't have excessive narration or music (ambient is okay)
    a. No music videos!
  3. Is over ten minutes
  4. Mark running time and loops in the title like [1:27:22] or (2 minute loop)

And you're set. Enjoy!
