There is Hollywood, the city. And then there is Hollywood, the film industry in the abstract--the “place” where Sunset Boulevard evokes the shattered dreams of Norma Desmond and not the street on which to shatter dreams with $5 well drinks and an ill-fated ride on the mechanical bull at Saddle Ranch. Click to enlarge. That Hollywood of the mind is the subject of this exhaustive cartographic experiment by British designers We Are Dorothy , who yanked assorted avenues and parks and rivers off the silver screen and plotted them out on paper to create a fictional map of the movies--a fantasy world of the ultimate fantasy world. The map, a followup to the designers’ comprehensive atlas of song names , is loosely based on a vintage street map of Los Angeles and features more than 900 places in films, including Sunset Boulevard, Mean Streets, Nightmare on Elm Street, Valley of the Dolls, and Chinatown.

How binary works: The binary number system (aka base 2) represents values using two symbols, typically 0 and 1. Computers call these bits. A bit is either off (0) or on (1). When arranged in sets of 8 bits (1 byte) 256 values can be represented (0-255). Using an ASCII chart, these values can be mapped to characters and text can be stored.
Binary - it's digitalicious!
