So you want to create a data set with entropy = 1 .
Think of this in terms of a hash function ,
You want to create a hash which only has an address space of 33 bits.
Something in terms of
H(Alice) = 0x12321 {H is a function which generates 0x12321 to store the data of alice)
Doesn't this sound like perfect hashing with limited memory.
I don't really think that this can be done with such memory constraints.
Even now we cannot produce a perfect hash function that uses 1 bit / key.
The theoretical best we can do is 1.44 bit / key. And the practical best we have done till now is 2.5 bits per key. [1]
This may just be possible without the memory constraint that is , you answer N number of questions which uniquely identify you. (where N > 48 )
