I’ve known of Brian Moriarty forever of course so it’s incredibly cool to hear him talk. One interesting note is he mentions he’s toyed with “remastering” Trinity with extra content and potentially releasing it under the original title.

Original Title

The Wabe

Apparently it was changed because it was believed nobody would understand what a ‘wabe’ is. It’s mentioned in Lewis Carroll’s “Jabberwocky” and apparently meant as “the circle of grass around a gnomon.” called a ‘wa-be’ because it “goes a long way before it, and a long way behind it” This game also taught me the word “gnomon” which is the vertical pointer of a sundial which casts the shadow.

That sounds like a good title for a TV show, perhaps a comedy.

If you’ve never heard him talk before, then perhaps you haven’t watched the Get Lamp documentary, or seen one of his many engrossing presentations. All of them are highly recommended.
