There's no such thing as "writing in binary", binary is just a numeric system, like decimal.
To "write in binary" we need coding system that makes the connection between a binary number and a letter, like "01000001" meaning "A" (if I got my zeros and ones right), then we have to use those letters to write in a specific language.
If I was part of an alien species trying to communicate with humans I wouldn't:
1 - choose apparently random parts of agricultural fields in a few specific countries, mostly in the UK;
2 - choose an enigmatic writing system that nobody can understand.
When we really want to communicated with someone with try to get the closest to their own language as we can (I do it here all the time, as my natural language is Portuguese).

I also speak Portuguese, I'm from Brazil.
Probably you didn't watch the video. So I'll tell you what happened there: they showed that one of the crop circles, a very complex one (big and that only makes sense when viewed from a helicopter), contained a representation of an alien (grey with pupils) and a binary code (written in a spiral) that when translated to ASCII contained a message.
Debossing is the opposite of embossing as you are creating an indent in the material you are using. A metal die is stamped onto the front of the material you are using causing depressions that leave a (debossed) imprint of the image.

Crop circles are messages….but from whom or what.
Is it conceivable that an alien race sent a communication probe and placed it In geostationary orbit over the British Isles and cloaked it for whatever reason…but just as long as it can send messages to earths surface? Crop fields being the canvas….
They say a picture is worth a thousand words……Art in itself communicates messages to the eye of the beholder.
I refuse to believe that ALL crop circles are man-made

Really ArMap….it is clear to me that your of the opinion that ALL crop circles are man-made….yet I’m sure you don’t have proof for that yourself. I’m not going down that rabbit hole of debate.
It’s just my opinion due to the intricacies and complexities of the designs of crop circles in general.
As for worth a thousand words….it’s an adage you’ll have to research its Genesis…. I didn’t come up with it.
As always…you don’t have to agree with posts I make in my own opinion.

A complete world wide database of crop circle images….would help.
I’ve seen studies with pictures about chemical changes in the stalks of the crops after the design has been made.
What I haven’t read or seen….. is any study having to do with analyzing bugs and bacteria that perhaps were in the soil. Sure pesticide’s may naturally be used by the farmer….but I suspect not all pesticides kill all pests all of the time.
If microwaves had been used to make the crop circle, I suspect anything living in the crops or on or just below the ground, may have died in the process of making the crop circles. Analyzing the dead bugs, bacteria, etc…..should reveal something at least.

The fact that Linda Moulton Howe dipped her greedy hands into the phenom (er...opportunity) tells me completely that it's bunk.
Great story though and it's fun to speculate and fantasize.
I enjoy those Why Files vids but cannot stand that fish. To me it detracts seriousness to the subject matter
