Description (in English): 

A computational poem created with the computer as its intended audience as well as its intended platform. At speeds beyond most human comprehension (but at a slow pace for most computers) this poem processes and displays the hexadecimal code that underlies the ASCII text format that encodes most of the English-language content on the web. Modified from Taroko Gorge by Nick Montfort. The title [54 61 72 6F 6B 6F] in Hexadecimal becomes [Taroko] translated to ASCII
