binlingual conversion and application

for the most part, i am a recent graduate from ub - BFA concentration in computer art - although still here i am... retaking previous classes to "up" my grade point average. cse111 (great ideas in computer sciece) for one, and it's curious why i must know how the conversion from binary to decimal to hexidecimal to octal pertains to anything ( the physical sense of the matter)... as if someday i may physically need to apply it myself? i mean with technologies emerging, it's nonsense to have to physically apply them all mathmatically (which can take hours). i think that it has some bearing to aquire the knowledge of how the computer "brains" work, and basic understanding of the different systems is all that should pertain. whom ever designed this conversion sure is one "smart cookie" although must be very strange... i could never image composing only such... lines and strands of text and numbers... whooooo... talk about a lack of aesthetics. for that matter, i suppose we do NEED those types, just as "us artists" give in return to society as well...

good then.
