Binary Code

The worlds first machine accessible binary code was patented in France in 1874 by Emile Baudot.

Maybe it has been with us since we first began to emerge from his murky unconscious. We have always understood it through archetypal expression of light and dark.

The great philosophical thinkers of the far east built an entire system of thought around it. And Gottfried Liebniz understood its possibilities as a framework for mathematical understanding.

But only recently have we unleashed its truly awesome power. Binary code has allowed us to harness the greatest power of all known time. The power of communicated thought.

Now it has, through the medium of modern technology, become humanity's first and only universal language. For the first time, humanity can act and think in unison if it so desires. And as such, it binds us together. All 6 billion of us.

It is our hope, our future and, perhaps, our end.
