That blows my mind! I would've never have figured out the phonetic realizations of non-human speech. What inspired it?

Thank you very much!

I found Tangut in my research of writing systems that have no phonetic information. Nothing in Bittic has been directly inspired by Tangut. Tangut simply gave me the confidence that a photographic-only language was viable.

Thank you very much! There were pictures in Bittic messages. The 4x4 glyphs are the simplified images that became standard. I'd imagine that there were a large amount of messages that were just binary images. My focus has been mainly on the language proper.

We hope you get well soon!

Day 9 is kinda boring. Bittic lacks allophones or sandhi due to its binary nature.

Amazing work! lol

Your work is great! I can tell by the detail you put in your art that you care deeply about it. I can't wait to see the final version.

I haven't really thought of that. I just figured that the message compiling would be handled by computers constantly listening to the common radio bands for messages and bringing attention to specific messages for the user based on keywords. Thank you for bringing it up!

Messages in Bittic are transmitted in bursts such that the number of bits is a semi-prime. That way, the linear string of binary can be easily reordered into a 2-dimensional image. If you ended up with a non-semi-prime amount of bits, then you can assume you got an incomplete message.

The "standard" was alternating high and low frequency pulses to a fixed BPM. The modern standard is that high frequencies are 1s and the low frequencies are 0s. All glyphs standardized around 4x4 bits with no row or column being all low frequency pulses.
