Are landscape videos Slow TV?

Decidedly different than the Slow TV developed by NRK, there are many videos online which are labelled Slow TV. Beautiful landscapes, long duration shots, slow transitions - but usually single camera and not continuous real time. The below video is a lovely production - is it Slow TV or Ambient TV? The availability of an alternative version with ambient music does lend itself to that idea.

If one is to define the NRK Minutt for Minutt Slow TV template as Slow TV, that would mean anything else being called Slow TV then needs to be recategorised. Something to think upon. In the meantime, give this video a try.
