Are you looking for an interview about Slow TV? Are you from a production company wanting to develop new Slow TV content? I have ample experience in studying, reflecting and developing ideas for Slow TV and Ambient TV.

In 2014 I had two trips to Norway making a documentary about where Slow TV has come from, what it is and where it's going. 2015 saw that documentary completed, with media interviews and academic conference about Slow TV. 2016 saw my studying and working on Slow TV increase with freelance experience with the BBC Research and Development User Experience department. I continue to be contacted for insights and content related to Slow Television.

If you want to contact me for an interview in the press, radio or TV, you can email me here.

My documentary - "That Damned Cow - Just What is Norwegian Slow TV?" is available to watch in full on Facebook Video now.
