Watch

Six short videos. Each one is a piece of the same investigation.

01

The Teaser

What if someone wrote your autobiography before you could remember your own life? Not in words you’d recognize.

02

The Answers Were Too Small

“The Sun is a ball of gases.” Correct answer. Still felt too small.

03

The Sanskrit Page

There’s a page of Sanskrit in my father’s papers. It seems to be addressed to me.

04

Information Doesn’t Always Look Like Information

My father taught me Morse code, telex, paper cryptography, mnemonics. None of it made sense to a small boy.

05

Who Wrote This For Me?

My father wrote a page before I was born, addressed to a son he hadn’t met yet.

06

Keep Guessing

My own family has never agreed on where I was born, and the Sanskrit page turned out to be a whole book, not a single sheet. I’m telling you exactly what’s missing.
