Message Table

Ruth Typed up the table of messages after Tuesday's meeting. I thought composing this table was the most fun and the most educational part of the night. Here it is:

	Frame	Outer	Inner
Record	Disc	Sound	Music/Emotion
*DNA	Aperiodic crystal	Genotype (Genes)	Alleles (Traits)
Message in a bottle	Paper in glass container, floating in water but dry	Letters in message, signifier, "h" "e" "l" "p"	Signified HELP!
Painting	Frame	Colors and Lines	Feelings/Idea depending on the period
Bird Flying South	Meat, Feathers, Sky, Light	Science	Season, Air exists! Laws of Aerodynamics
π	numerals	"3." "1" “4” “1” “5” “9” etc.	A circle's circumference divided by its diameter
Virus	Protein stuff	RNA	Copy Me!
Billboard	Wood, paper, Position	Images, Logos, Alphabet	Buy Me!
White dove	Meat & feathers	(Western) Cultural reference	Love (Peace)
Page 176 of GEB	Paper with ink	“CCGTCAGG…”	DNA*

Thanks so very much Ruth for typing this up. Does anyone want to add anything more? (leave a comment!).
