Douglas Kahn on Slowness

My friend Doug got hit by a car and now he's written about it in The Guardian. I love it, and especially this part: 

There are cities within the city with rhythms within rhythms that overlap and, at times, collide. What the image does not show is that there are other people there with you. The city blurs around many people. They occupy the same space but live in a different passage of time than the Sydney most people know.
