Arasmas and symphonyXjapan... are you graphic designers ?

 

[Carta's]

Well I once wrote a song and titled it randomly "0011001" and about a year later I noticed that it's binary code for "y".

That's 01011001

That's 01011001

0011001 is 7 digit binary for y, 01011001 is 8 digit code. (I think 7 digit was the more common with computers.)

This thread is a good example of how a shit/noob thread about something as stupid as whats behind the Opeth logo becoming something actually worthwhile.

Arasmas and symphonyXjapan,nice theories.It feels good to see that people actually care about the real meaning behind Opeth's secrets
