This is Slow Thoughts – a home for things that take time.

I’m Hannes. I’ve worked as a journalist, a sometime gallery owner, and a reluctant founder of two startups. These days I help researchers turn early-stage ideas into things the world might actually use.

I started this blog because I think better when I write. For years I filled notebooks with scattered thoughts, but they didn’t ask much of me. A public blog, even one with a tiny audience, does. It nudges me to finish what I start, to be a little clearer, a little braver.

The name began as a quiet nod to Thinking, Fast and Slow — but it’s really the slow part that stuck.

Most posts are in English – the language I work in – but there’s a small section in Swedish under Other Writing, a souvenir from an earlier chapter.

Thanks for reading.
