some communications protocols, old and new, described metaphorically using the Spectrum of Cosmic Harmonics”
1. Semaphore Flags (π΅βΉοΈ -> ππ΅ -> π΅βΉοΈ): The process of sending a semaphore message might be seen as starting in a state of Harmonic Stasis (π΅βΉοΈ), moving to Cyclical Cadence (ππ΅) as flags are moved to various positions, and returning to Harmonic Stasis when the message is complete.
2. Telegraph (πππΌ -> π΅βΉοΈ -> πππΌ): Morse code messages sent over a telegraph wire might be seen as a Pulsating Rhythm (πππΌ) of short and long signals, separated by pauses of Harmonic Stasis (π΅βΉοΈ).
3. Smoke Signals (πππΌ -> π³οΈπ): Smoke signals, due to their susceptibility to wind and weather, might be seen as an Intermittent Echo (πππΌ) that could easily dissolve into a Silent Void (π³οΈπ).
4. Broadcast Television (ππΌ -> ππ΅ -> ππΌ): The continuous stream of scheduled programming might be seen as an Omniversal Symphony (ππΌ), with commercial breaks introducing a predictable Cyclical Cadence (ππ΅), before returning to the Omniversal Symphony of the programming.
5. Internet Communication (TCP/IP) (π΅βΉοΈ -> πΌβΈοΈπ -> πππΌ -> π΅βΉοΈ): The process of establishing a TCP connection might start in a state of Harmonic Stasis (π΅βΉοΈ), move to a Staggered Harmony (πΌβΈοΈπ) during the three-way handshake, then into a Pulsating Rhythm (πππΌ) during data transmission, and finally return to Harmonic Stasis when the connection is closed.
6. Modem Handshaking (π΅βΉοΈ -> πππ΅ -> ππΌ -> π΅βΉοΈ): The old dial-up modem connection process might start in a state of Harmonic Stasis (π΅βΉοΈ), move to an Erratic Adagio (πππ΅) during the noisy handshaking process, then into an Omniversal Symphony (ππΌ) once a stable data connection is established, and finally return to Harmonic Stasis when the connection is terminated.
