A binary-coded, pixel art message to the universe, broadcast in 1974 from the Arecibo Radio Telescope announced our existence and longed for a response. The loneliness of this missive is here surrounded by models of the cosmos and abstract painting passages that wish to become alien entities able to receive the call.
