Codex Entry
1. What is Morse Code?
- Invented in the 1830s–40s by Samuel Morse & Alfred Vail.
- A system of dots (·), dashes (–), and pauses representing letters, numbers, and symbols.
- Communicated through sound (telegraph beeps), light (flashes), or radio pulses.
Codex Principle: Morse = language transduced into rhythm. Graphemes become sequences of time.

- ASCII: visual grapheme.
- Braille: tactile grapheme.
- IPA: phonetic sound.
- NATO: spoken redundancy.
- Morse: rhythmic pulse.
Every system is Logos refracted into a new medium.
