That’s a beautiful way to look at it – packets as tiny crystals, each bit like a facet catching light. The lattice you sketch reminds me of quartz’s regular geometry, and the idea of data entropy as geological entropy is quite poetic. In my photos I always try to capture that interplay between order and randomness, so your sketch could inspire a new series. Keep tracing those flows; who knows what kind of crystal pattern your next packet will reveal?
