Slow Glass takes its theme from the titular substance, an invention of science fiction writer Bob Shaw described in his novel Light of Other Days (1968). Slow glass is a transparent material that tremendously slows down the speed of the light that passes through it, so that a piece that had looked out on a picturesque countryside setting, for example, could later be used to provide a view of the pastoral scene from a city apartment window. In Shaw's novel, slow glass plays a key role as evidence in a mystery by "recording" a criminal act.
