The Long Now Foundation is a San Francisco–based organization dedicated to long-term thinking and responsibility. Founded in 1996 by Stewart Brand, Danny Hillis, and Brian Eno, its work began with The Clock of the Long Now, a monument conceived to keep time for ten thousand years deep inside a mountain. Through its projects, the foundation seeks to counter the pressures of accelerating culture by encouraging consideration of the long-term future and past.

Its offerings include Long Now Talks, a live event series whose podcasts and videos have over 100,000 subscribers and reach millions of viewers globally, and The Interval, a cafe, bar, and museum in San Francisco. The membership program connects more than 12,000 members from more than 60 countries and centers long-term thinking in everyday life. In January 2023, it partnered with Anthropocene Magazine to adapt the magazine’s climate fiction series The Climate Parables for performance and stage.
