Transcodex is a project exploring the transcoding principle of computer
media. Transcoding refers broadly to the ability of numerically encoded data
objects to migrate and morph across traditional media divides, such as
image/sound/text. It equally references the digitization of culture and
society. This magical capacity is arguably the most radical, and perhaps
disconcerting, aspect of new media. The project currently consists of
several parts and will involve future phases.
:
> binary/image/sound/text
:
Brief and basic technical explanations of how computers work with numbers
and thereby converse across traditional (material) media divides via binary
encoding.

> transcodex (v.0.7)
:
A 9000-word, currently lightly illustrated, essay thoroughly exploring the
historical and cultural roots of transcoding. Providing an alternative, or
at least neglected, view of new media, it considers coding an extension of
early linguistic practices that evolved into advanced mathematical-logical
notation and later computation. The findings of the research have
implications for how transcoding is understood within the narrow context of
computation and also for how the underlying desire to perfect translation,
involving both notions of a unique parameter language and a flawless
understanding across tongues and cultures, has shaped the discourses of East
and West.
