This was the amount of time given freely to the event by persons at the Between (above) including speakers and audience alike between 2-7pm. We measured it using software designed for the occassion by Neal White and programmed by Jim Wood, operated by Simon an SLG invigilator. With no funding received, we decided it would be a good idea to record the units of attendance in order to generate a figure that aligns concepts of value with measurements of culture.
