It could also interestingly be mixed with reflected binary code [1] with only one segment changing between two successive values. > Theoretically, the Unicode Consortium could decide to add the Birkana symbols to the Unicode specification and some enterprising font designer could come up with a set for general use. There are already some runes encoded in unicode, but most of the symbols of the birkana system does not match any existing historical runes though. Yet, there is something in unicode that is somehow visually close [2]: braille patterns (2 columns of 4 rows of dots). But sadly the braille dots are not ordered in the same way because it was extended from 6 bits (from top to bottom : left column 123, right column 456) to 8 bits (from top to bottom : left column 1237, right column 4568). -- [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_code [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns
