Explore the scenic Pacific Northwest ... slowly ... with ‘OPB’s Slow TV’
https://www.opb.org/article/2025/11/26/opb-slow-tv-pacific-northwest-oregon-field-guide/
"Linger in some of the region’s most wondrous sites and moments as OPB cinematographers take you on a barge through the Gorge, on a train up Mount Hood, in a canoe around Upper Klamath Lake and more."
### **The Legacy and the Future**
The lineage is clear:
- **1960s:** Artists and engineers **proved unfiltered storytelling was possible**.
- **1990s:** Broadcasters like Euronews **refined it for the masses**.
- **2000s:** The internet and smartphones **put it in everyone’s hands**.
- **2020s:** We’re living in the world they built—one where **the most powerful stories are often the ones we capture ourselves**.
The next chapter? **Virtual reality, AI-generated deepfakes, and the metaverse** will test the limits of this trust. But the foundation remains: **a belief in the power of the unmediated image**, and the audience’s right to **see for themselves**.
So the next time you watch a **No Comment** segment, or scroll through a feed of raw, unedited clips, remember: you’re not just consuming media. You’re part of a **century-long experiment** in what happens when the barriers between creator and audience dissolve. The camera is in your hands now. **What will you do with it?**

Update on the thing I did: after a picturesque late-season snowfall in #Halifax I took my #GoPro on a short hike down a #ColeHarbour trail, and spent the summer learning Final Cut Pro, editing and stabilizing the GoPro video into a nice little #SlowTV trail vid -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMAdBuL8MGM -- I'd like to record more trails around #NovaScotia, sharing the natural beauty of Atlantic #Canada (and hopefully monetize the channel eventually).

Den stora kyrkflytten
I direktsändning följer vi den världsunika flytten av Kiruna kyrka, från gamla stadskärnan till dess nya plats, fem kilometer bort. Den stora kyrkflytten tar två dagar och är en del av den omfattande stadsomvandlingen. Den ikoniska kyrkan är 40 meter bred, 35 meter hög och väger 672 ton. Arbetet kräver extrem precision och ingenting får gå fel.
