Sounds like you get it! Honestly, what I really want to see is long strings of binary projected as 2d or 3d abstractions from the raw binary, by a variety of means. I really wanted to account for leading up to this, these were also considerations for the binary format. The idea is to test a variety of ways that 1d binary can be replotted in 2d or 3d in a virtual space, then examine the 2d or 3d space to see what sort of weird computations it does! It might be possible to isolate groups of binary that interact and do specific things. The idea is to emulate a computational space that does not decay! I'm inspired by the idea that computers don't have to work by exactly the same principles we have always used.

Basically, I want to see every computer become a complex transistor.

I'm a fan of the book Permutation City :).
