        YES!! Thanks, that was driving me crazy.

        Captain Disillusion did a whole series on video technology and I falsely remembered it coming from there.

      When you zoom in a hair and the grid’s everywhere, that’s a moire.

        When the parallel lines are just slightly inclined, that’s a-moiré!
