The Rest Test is an online survey of rest and is part of a ground breaking collaboration of artists, scientists and historians known as Hubbub, looking at the elusive quality of rest in our modern world. For the last two years Hubbub's been exploring the dynamics of rest, noise, activity and work in the arts, everyday life, neuroscience and mental health. BBC Radio 4, BBC World Service and Hubbub launched the Rest Test in autumn last year and more than 18,000 people from 193 countries took part. It's the biggest survey of what rest means both in Britain and globally.
Claudia Hammond, with the help of guests Lemn Sissay, Robin Ince, Claire Martin, Kathleen Jamie, Felicity Callard and Jules Evans, reveals the results to a live audience in Wellcome Collection's historic Reading Room.
