Digital AKA Digitization
The process of artificially converting information that is in a casual or fluid state of wholeness via into a system of binary numbers, thus discretely divesting it from its source. Early digital devices included the abacus, a tool for complex calculation generally thought to have been developed by ancient
Babylonians
. Beginning in the mid-20th-century, the drive towards digitalization was largely the result of technologies developed by
Ma Bell
, including torpedo control systems, digital speech scrambling circa World War II, and the first digital art application in 1962
1
. By 1999, more information was stored in digital than analog form. Although spiritual leaders, especially those following some form of
the Dharma
, often liken digitization to a virus of meaningless - a turn away from fundamental reality further plunging humanity into a funhouse world of construct and abstract concept, there do exist in the physical world digital corollaries. In fact, the
black hole information paradox
/
holographic universe
model posits that the world itself is simply a two-dimensional plane of information giving rise to the illusion of dimensionality. In more basic terms, DNA is itself a digital system, lending credence to the claims that our biological reality is, if not a
simulation
, certainly designed and generated in a manor far advanced of but similar to rudimentary cyberspace.
