Episode 92: Maybe It’s a Secret Code

Terrastina buys an old TV. She plugs it in and turns it on. Every channel displays snow, but Terrastina is fascinated by the subtle differences from channel to channel. Look, she says to Mazolli, channel four is darker than channel five. She flips the dial back and forth several times. Do you see it? Mazolli scratches his head. If you say so, Terr. You know what we’re seeing here, don’t you Moz? Static is random radiation floating around in the universe. This snow is the big bang talking to us. The start of everything, roaring through this picture tube.
