The key to making time last longer is to try something new. Why do years seem to fly by as we get older? Because—says neuroscientist David Eagleman, Stanford professor and author of The Brain: The Story of You—as kids, everything is a first time. Novelty and a sense of wonder equal things lasting longer. (S/O to NY Mag’s The Science of Us for that.)
What better time to intentionally prolong, then, than a summer that’s just beginning? We set New Year’s Resolutions—maybe we should be setting summer ones, too.
Here, we take cues from five creatives rich in inspiration and wonder.
