Pi - Consciousness and Patterns in Computation
Sol Robeson: [[computers; [sense]
Certain programs cause ] to get stuck in a particular loop. The loop leads to meltdown but just before the crash, they become aware of their own structure. The computer has a ] of its own silicon nature and it prints out the ingredients.
Maximillian Cohen:
The computer becomes conscious?
Sol Robeson:
In some ways, I guess.
Maximillian Cohen:
Studying the pattern made Euclid conscious of itself. I had to... Before it died it spit out the number. That consciousness is the number?
Sol Robeson:
No, Max. It's only a nasty bug.
Maximillian Cohen:
It's more than that, Sol.
Sol Robeson: [[dead; [end; [nothing]
No, it's not. It's a ] ]. There's ] there.
Maximillian Cohen: [[door]
It's a ], Sol. It's a door.
Sol Robeson:

Only one man was allowed to enter this Holy of Holies on one day, the holiest day of the year, ]. On the Day of Atonement, all of Israel would descend upon ] to watch the High Priest, the Cohen Godul, make his trip to the Holy of Holies.

Pi - The Meaning Beyond Numbers
Maximillian Cohen:
It's just a number. I'm sure you've written down every 216 digit number. You've translated all of them. You've intoned them all. Haven't you? What's it gotten you? The number is nothing! It's the meaning. It's the syntax. It's what's between the numbers. You haven't understood it. It's because it's not for you!

So, what about the stock market? The ] of numbers that represents the global ]. Millions of human hands at ], billions of ]. A vast network, screaming with ]. An organism. A natural organism.
