As I started reading a bit about analog vs digital signals, I keep returning to this thought. This could be something pretty obvious to the pros out there, but is it safe to assume that underneath it all, the dichotomy between analog and digital is a false one?
That analog is digital, with a high enough resolution. I am not talking about the technology involved, but the nature of the signal, itself.
To put it yet another way, every signal is digital, we just perceive the world as analog, which has got more to do with the bounds within which our perception/consciousness/senses (or extensions thereof) operate?! Perceptual latency. A hypothetical digital signal, with infinitesimal sampling-rate, and infinite bit-rate -- although, that would somewhat defeat some purpose behind digitization--would be it's analog counterpart.
