Estimate of message entropy in compiled form: EEE kB.

There are bugs and rough edges in the message. Please be forgiving. It'll all get fixed in an instant of galactic time...

The easily-human-readable source code for the message is given below. For fun, you can also look at a less readable, alien-esque form of the message, updated periodically from the compiled form of the message.

Message visualization

message parts visualized using icons

To get a sense for how understandable the message is, it can be viewed using a set of fairly arbitrary icons. This visualization is produced for each section above, and is generated from the raw message stripped of any identifiers or comments, so no side-information leaks through (apart from some biases in the visualization itself, e.g. the left-to-right top-to-bottom flow!).




complete message visualized as raw image


The image reads diagonally, starting at the top left. It is handy for spotting phase changes in the message (e.g. the transition from using unary to binary, or - more importantly - bugs). Breaks between statements are white dots, zeros are greenish, ones are reddish, parentheses are different shades of blue.
