These all are good tries, however it should be something like MP3. When
MP3 appeared it immediately became clear that the era of CD is over. Or
a Cartesian coordinate system. For two thousand years the dot was
considered as a final indivisible entity, an axiom. Until René Descartes
split the dot in two coordinates x and y. Now it seems to be obvious,
but at that time Isaac Newton had to reread Descartes' La Géométrie,
where this idea was published, nine times. A Cartesian coordinate system
was a ground-breaking idea.
It is flying in the air, but it is not there yet. Perhaps, it requires a
thinker like René Descartes to formulate, if it is doable at all.
