That's how I got started on this subject. That Hurrian tablet (supposedly the world's oldest
musical notation but really it wasn't according to Monzo) said that the number of syllables of
the text were equal to the number of notes of the tablet. So I got to thinking about some of
the very elaborate games that writers play in their books to hide certain things for their
desired audience of readers. Berg did something like this too. Except that his was more for
the humor. He would construct melodies from the names of his friends using the letters as
notes.. all that music that has influenced the world so was merely letter games for Berg.

Hello,

I have recently discovered a new graphic representation for the
I Ching hexagrams that show that the I Ching was also intended to
be a hologram generator. By hologram, I mean something like the
traditional hieroglyphic style of Chinese writing except that it
has an internal sequence/logic. I accomplished this by representing
the changing lines differently. You can see the new graphic
arrangement at my webpage (it's about 2 paragraphs down):

You can also download the software for free. I use Norton's anti-virus with the
latest software upgrades so the download is virus free.
Please distribute it to your other I Ching friends. Thanks.

I wanted to write words that represent numbers.
Sorry 'bout the typo.
