This guy used geometric shapes to record data.

Let's stack a pile of many-sided paper shapes on top of one another. Let's also be able to spin them into any even more complex metashape comprised of all the shapes, and also certain 'stop codon' signals on any page that will divide the pile into two organizations instead of one.

A few sheets of paper together could form a very complex shape. If each piece of paper were the size of a quarter and having of roughly 80-100 sides, stacked perhaps in a group of 10, how many 3D combinations could you have? Also, how many somewhat jagged 2D metashapes could you form, with a sensitivity of "only 1*"? Depending on the acuity of the machine, tiny fractions of one degree of shape rotation could house important data. This rotation would be a recording.

The shapes may have color wheels on them instead of shapes, and their color Hz could be an excellent storage method.
