Nik Harron Painting Decoded

By

Last night was the Nik Harron art opening at Kwartzlab. During Niks talk he mentioned that one of his paintings titled “6-bit Message from Beyond the Great Divide” contained a coded message consisting of 6-bit binary characters. It didn’t take long for Kwartlzab member James Bastow to decode the painting. The decoded message is, “Lamarck Lives”.

For anyone looking for more of a challenge, try to decode the fourth panel of the Kryptos:
