We present <SMALL>slow technology</SMALL>: a design agenda for technology aimed at reflection and moments of mental rest rather than efficiency in performance. The aim of this paper is to develop a design philosophy for slow technology, to discuss general design principles and to revisit some basic issues in interaction design from a more philosophical point of view. We discuss examples of <SMALL>soniture</SMALL> and <SMALL>informative art</SMALL> as instances of slow technology and as examples of how the design principles can be applied in practice.
