Join a conversation with Stephen Wolfram and Theodore Gray as they remember inventing the Wolfram Notebook, developing and launching Mathematica 1.0, and what came next in their decades-long journeys in software design, the business of technology, and creating lasting products that changed the way people think about and do computation.

Part 1—Developing Mathematica and the Wolfram Notebook. In this first part of a three-part series, Stephen and Theo reminisce on early names for Mathematica, advice on notebooks from Steve Jobs, and the origins of the Wolfram Spikey logo in an informal conversation.

Stephen Wolfram remembers his time spent with Richard Feynman on what would have been his 100th birthday. Based on a chapter in his book 'Idea Makers,' Stephen recalls personal interactions, anecdotes and correspondence with Feynman.
