This Binary Universe

<p><i>This Binary Universe</i> is the fifth studio album by the <a href="/facts/Composer/6zrz16FN">composer</a> and <a href="/facts/Electronica/clnaT6vm">electronica</a> artist <a href="/facts/Brian_Transeau/4cbmd2Ag">BT</a>. It was released on August 29, 2006. The album was a significant about-face for Transeau, largely abandoning the <a href="/facts/Progressive_electronic_dance_music/NHY3DPem">progressive</a> <a href="/facts/Trance_music/hTgTGn2P">trance music</a> he was known for, in favor of ambient soundscapes, live orchestration and <a href="/facts/Glitch_(music)/HduQSe0W">glitch music</a>. It is the first BT album not to be released on <a href="/facts/Grammophone_record/ccuFV9Af">vinyl</a>, nor feature any singles (though an edit of "1.618" was featured on a compilation). The album was also composed specifically for <a href="/facts/Digital_Theater_System/wbQwqtdQ">DTS</a> <a href="/facts/Surround_sound/9FXUKVvs">5.1 surround sound</a>. A film version of the album received a limited theatrical run, usually accompanied by appearances by Transeau himself. The album is dedicated to Transeau's daughter, Kaia. The album's artwork makes nods to binary by spelling BT's name in <a href="/facts/Morse_code/GXwCl1HV">morse code</a> on the cover, as well as using additional morse code on the DVD menus.
