Movement that unfolds over minutes, hours, or days—the commute to work, the slow crawl of a deadline, the gradual realization that the person you're dating is not who you thought they were. Medium-duration motion is the rhythm of daily life, too fast to be geological, too slow to be instantaneous, just right for watching paint dry or grass grow or a relationship deteriorate in slow motion. It's the temporal scale of human experience, where most of life happens and most of it is waiting.
