I'm sitting here in the desert with a slow internet connection
and a heating sun on my head. Saoedi Arabia. Killing some time
with newlisp and sandy keystrokes when I found this small relic beside
me in the sand..

If you have decoded it let me know ;-)

Decoded and I agree! :)

I love these! There's lots of different species too.

If you wrote the encoder in newLISP I'll be really impressed. If you wrote a decoder in newLISP as well I'm even more impressed!

heheh you decoded it with your Iphone?

I like the fact that some mobiles can simple scan & execute it..very nice..
Google has a lib for it.. ZXing.. there are some other libs for decoding it
too.. No i did not create a encoder for it.. Though It was my intention to
do it..upto the point where I discovered that the ISO document was still
not free but $100.. So i dropped it ..

A way of encoding text into a picture is very nice, its getting even nicer when
a device can simply decode it.. this way you can create small newlisp scripts
and display them as a picture ;-)
a very nice way of giving the Human-Eye a handicap,
because these things where build for computers only ;-)

I do also agree!

I read it with: http://www.bctester.de/

;-)

There are various commercial components (for different languages) out there but I did not find free encoder/decoders yet.
