Oh, let him have a little fun. At least he's using emoji for something related to characters, instead of playing Mr. Potato Head. Incidentally, more prior art on large-base encoding: https://sites.google.com/site/markusicu/unicode/base16k -- Doug Ewell | Thornton, CO, US | ewellic.org

Re: base1024 encoding using Unicode emojis

Ideally, the purpose of such base-1024 encoding is to allow compacting arbitrary data into plain-text which can be safely preserved including by Unicode normalization and transforms by encoding like UTF-8. But then we have a way to do that is such a way that this minimizes the UTF-8 string sizes

base1024 encoding using Unicode emojis

I created a neat little project based on Unicode emojis. I thought some on this list may find it interesting. It encodes arbitrary data as 1024 emojis. The project is called Ecoji and is hosted on github at https://github.com/keith-turner/ecoji Below are some examples of encoding and decoding.
