»Golden Fractals Old Hardware?«

This is actually my first post, so bear with me... Could it be possible that the Gold Fractals are actually symbolizations of old hardware from the architects "Perfect World"? I noticed that Seraph had it, and seeing as there is no real evidence pointing to it (or against actually), he could have been created when the oracle was created, hence being the "Perfect Hardware". Smith inhabiting Bane could require a little more explaining... Maybe smith was the agent that allegedly multiplied in the 6 previous versions, making him "Old Hardware". Lastly, and strangest, The real worlds Golden Fractals could also be old hardware, but that wouldnt make much sense, unless it has wires and such running through it, making it allegedly seem the walls are glowing, but they arent, It could just be the Data running through them. But from what I can gather, its far'fetched but possible.

You bring up an interesting though, gold code Seraph, perfect Matrix version (version 0.1, yes?). The analogy has been made between the first Matrix being perfect and as such it was like that of the Judeo-Christian heaven, Matrix version 0.2 was designed based on human history, it's been suggested that this version of the Matrix was absolutly miserable, similar to the Judeo-Christian Hell. The versions of the Matrix bearing the Anomaly, versions 1.0-6.0 (some would say 7.0 as well...possibly, sure) are basically Earth in Judeo-Christian teachings.

It would kind of make significant sense that Seraph (the highest order of Angels who were the gaurdians of the throne of God) would come from the perfect world Matrix. And perhaps (though as you say there is no proof or disproof) that the coding was different for this version of the Matrix. So, Seraph and any other program seeking exile in the Matrix would appear as gold code. Even though Seraph is the only program we see with this gold code...I think it's plausible.

Do I understand you correctly?

I like the idea though, hadn't thought of that.

you touched on the symbolism of seraph

being one of the seraphim angels who resided on the top tier of heaven and whos love for good was said to BURN LIKE FIRE

this is what i beleive the gold code represents

the oracle is shown in revolutions NOT to have gold code but merely normal green code(see it when smith replicates over her)

I'm going to check when I get back to school, but...I want to see if maybe Serraphs code looks different OTHER than the colour. Like maybe Seraph is made of a different programming code. Maybe someone else can check? maybe you anomaly (we seem to agree on most things, I'll trust your homework:)).

Seraphs are described...they are supposed to be so radiant that if a hguman were to see a Seraph he would fall down dead. They're supposed to be very bright creatures. I don't think, however, that what is happening to Seraph is "burning" I think it has more to do with radiance...such as Seraphim we're radiant with God's holy light...to me though Seraph isn't burning, he's radiating.

I checked for you, by taking a screen shot from the reloaded trailer of that 1/8th of a second you see Seraph. He's defanitly not a program in the matrix like an Agent. While in this screen shot, the room around him is clearly code, 9they seem to make a point of it) in contrast there is nothing decernable as code for Seraph's form. He seems to be entirly energy, much like the machines Neo sees in on the surface.

I have an other theory, but I'll have to watch part of Reloaded to be sure. Be back in a bit.

yea intresting stuff.. did seraph get copied by smith in revolutions too?

I was watching the scene where Trinity is revived at the end of Reloaded. I was looking for "none code" aspects of her, as I remembered her exterior defanitly looked like code.. anyway.

Yeah, her viens and arteries (or blood) showed no signs of being code.. only her exterior. So my guess is that, like Trin's blood(essance), Seraph is an external machine plugged into the matrix.

Yes, Smith copied himself over Seraph.
