PI = 3.14
"Converted into ASCII text, somewhere in that infinite string if digits is the name of every person you will ever love, the date, time and manner of your death, and the answers to all the great questions of the universe."
So I have been reading about PI and I came up with the following concept:
In the future, everything will be "stored" and accessed in PI.
By December 28th 2013, PI has been computed to 12 trillion digits. I can imagine that a mobile device built 100 years from now will be able to do this in real-time. If so, we won't need to store data anymore, because everything already exists in PI, we'll only need to index it.
For example, the entire Jurassic Park movie in MPEG2 format, could be hidden at the 789542647823784612346184780146180754178054 digit of PI with a size of 31983719826496 digits.
So as you see, all you need to access this data is its Index and Size.
In 2115, data won't be accessed, it will be summoned.
...and if the personal device doesn't have enough raw power to compute PI large of fast enough to find a specific index, it will access the Central Cloud. A world-wide conglomerate of datacenters existing for the sole purpose of storing PI to the maximum number of digits that current future technology is able to compute.
This technology already exists, I am able to "summon" my name at the 1835058576th binary digit of PI.
