Franz Kline and Elaine De Kooning were sitting at the Cedar Bar when a collector Franz knew came up to them in a state of fury. He had just come from Newman’s first one-man show. ‘How simple can an artist be and get away with it?’ he spluttered. ‘There was nothing, absolutely nothing there!’ ‘Nothing?’ asked Franz, beaming. ‘How many canvases were in the show?’ ‘Oh maybe ten or twelve - but all exactly the same - just one stripe down the centre, that’s all!’ 'All the same size?’ Franz asked. ‘Well no; there were different sizes; you know, from about 3 to 7 feet.’ ‘Oh, 3 to 7 feet, I see; and all the same colour?’ Franz went on. ‘No, different colours, you know; red and yellow and green… but each picture painted one flat colour - you know, like a house painter would do it, and then this stripe down the centre.’ ‘All the stripes the same colour?’ ‘No’ ‘Were they all the same width?’ The man began to think a little. ‘Let’s see. No. I guess not. Some were maybe an inch wide and some maybe four inches, and some in between.’ ‘And all upright pictures?’ ‘Oh, no, there were some horizontals.’ ‘With vertical stripes?’ ‘Oh, no, I think there were some horizontal stripes, maybe.’ ‘And were the stripes darker or lighter than the background? ‘Well I guess they were darker, but there was one white stripe, or maybe more…’ 'Was the stripe painted on top of the background colour or was the background colour painted around the stripe?’ The man began to get a bit uneasy. ‘I’m not sure,’ he said, ‘I think it may have been done either way, or both ways, maybe…’ ‘Well I don’t know,’ said Franz. ‘It all sounds damned complicated to me.’

Trivia Inferno has been assigned the catalog number WARP496. This seems to be a deliberate request from the band themselves, as preceding Warp releases such as Squarepusher's Kammerkonzert and Oneohtrix Point Never's Tranquilizer have catalog numbers of 417 and 411, respectively. 496 is a perfect number and a hexagonal number. The Continuous Mix version runs for exactly 70 minutes. This seems to be deliberate, as 70 has carried meaning in the band's past releases. For example: Music70 is the name of Mike and Marcus's own label. Sixtyten from MHTRTC reads out as 70. The Smallest Weird Number from Geogaddi directly refers to 70, which is the smallest weird number. Even though the track runs for 1:17, it cuts out at exactly 1:10, which is 70 seconds.
