What's your formula?

Just one answer to Hans Ulrich Obrist’s question: What is your formula for the 21st century? 

"This is a cross section of the pace layering of a healthy civilzation.

The fast parts like fashion and commerce propose ideas and absorb shocks.
The slow parts like governance and culture set the rules, maintain continuity, and integrate lessions.
The fast parts get all the attention.
The slow parts have all the power."

- Stewart Brand
