In this episode, Tim Prevett has a conversation with Björn Lindell, a masters student in Stockholm.

We begin by talking about studying Slow TV, then general conversation about Slow TV, innate sense of time, early film, cognitive loading, media psychology, state of flow. Later in the episode we speak specifically about The Great Moose Migration, comparing and contrasting with Norwegian Slow TV, audience feedback and reception, social media and the transitory communities which spring up online for these events.

Conversation starts at 03:58 after a short introduction

Dedicated discussion of The Moose Migration starts 38:00 (though some specific relevance earlier, too)
