Language is a system in which value has been affixed to symbols for the purposes of exchange.(*see pidgin barter languages)
In cryptography, a cipher (or cypher) is an algorithm for performing encryption and decryption — a series of well-defined steps that can be followed as a procedure. An alternative term is encipherment. In non-technical usage, a “cipher†is the same thing as a “codeâ€; however, the concepts are distinct in cryptography. In classical cryptography, ciphers were distinguished from codes. Codes operated by substituting according to a large codebook which linked a random string of characters or numbers to a word or phrase. For example, “UQJHSE†could be the code for “Proceed to the following coordinatesâ€.
A business is a language which increases value in exchanges.
A group of MC’s, usually in a circular formation, who perform either improvised or pre-written lyrics. On a more symbolic note, the circle represents completion-360 degrees, or the idea of coming full circle in thought.
More specifically the cipher refers to the Five Percenters, Five Percent Nation of Islam, Nation of Gods and Earths. The RZA talks about how you had to memorize the 120 questions about the original Asiatic black man, and you could be spontaneously quizzed on your knowledge on street corners using the cipher format, and that this is the origin of rap battles.

Word.
Exactly. Word is bond
URL’s are Wikipedia’s real genius
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Racism
Google can’t touch them on how elegant that is.
Wikipedia is much more Poetic, and henceworth will win out until another programming MC steps forth to do battle with them: except Wikipedia is designed to encourage Battling for the mutual improvement of all… It is 100x more Daoist…
DECIPHER DISCIPLE
Interestingly, in the 5 percenters “Supreme Alphabet” each letter has a meaning and O means cipher.
ps. I absolutely love your add + value button.
Yeah I love the 5 Percent stuff! You should check out the Wu Tang Manual: not the best “book” but it definitely has “knowledge”
