Conversations
Each year, as a way of celebrating the vision behind Longplayer’s long term aspirations, we invite leading cultural thinkers to conduct a public conversation inspired by the philosophical premise of Longplayer, a project which unfolds, in real time, over the course of a millennium.
You can view the complete set of Conversations here, as well as find the latest news about upcoming Conversations.
