It’s always fun when you arrive to speak at a conference and ask “how many people do you expect in the audience?” only to hear that 700 is the magic number. Yesterday’s Design Academie Eindhoven conference on “Questioning Time” was a real treat.

And it’s also interesting to think about time from the perspective of a doctor. Time is:

  • Easy to measure.
  • An option to diagnose.
  • Therapy.
  • A risk.
  • Enlightenment.
  • A measure of healthfulness.
  • Economically sustainable.

I also got on a train in one country, went under the ocean at about 200mph, and came out in another country! And now I’m in London working with the NHS for about two weeks on this moderately healthy community. We live in an amazing world.
