Is This Maybe an Interesting Idea?

I know there's many ways to convert an analog signal into a binary one, but here's a late-night/early morning idea (or question, really) that popped up when I'd been examining a module called "Myco's 0 or 1" which seems to do a fine job of taking streams and binarizing them... if one wanted to take the binarized stream and look at, for instance, every 16 or 32 "bits" and assign a binary value to that chunk based on whether there are more zeroes, or more ones, in it.
I'm always searching for new methods to add potential movement and interest to parameters without simply making it accessible to DAW automation; REAPER, for example, has always been great for its plugin parameter automation options, but there's certain complexities that arise from internal cross-modulation and parameter interdependence that an automation script just can't duplicate.. there's still plenty of room for "happy accidents" in the digital realm.
Admittedly, I'm much better with words, pictures, and sounds than the realm of pure numbers- I often seem to retain just enough working knowledge to either reinvent the wheel (while still using too many parts), or allow myself occasional delusions of plugin grandeur
