Bust of Hadrian -- Busto di Adriano -- Publius Aelius Hadrianus

thingiverse

Bust of Hadrian designed based on the 3D scan of the British Museum bust. The lower part of the bust has the writing "Publius Aelius Hadrianus". Each letter is transcribed with the number that indicates its position in the alphabet, then these numbers are translated into binary code (consisting of eight binary digits) but only the final five digits are indicated as all these binary numbers have the initial sequence "000" in common. Example: H --> 8 (H is the 8th letter of the alphabet) --> 00001000 (it is the binary translation of the number 8) --> 01000 (removing the three initial 0s). Then each space (representing each of the 5 digits of the binary number obtained at the end) of each sector (representing a letter) has been filled or not if it indicates 1 or 0.
