"Trinity said":
Yesterday was a 10 10
Binary Code for the Matrix
red pill or blue pill
today is a 10 11 more code for the matrix
all those strange 911 synchronicities in the movies and everywhere, how do you think those happened? To return to the Source, Neo must first go to the Keymaker,
another program/person with "keys" to everything. The door to the mainframe, under intense security, can only be accessed for "just over five minutes" (until an alternate security system kicks in), or as the Keymaker puts it "exactly 314 seconds." This of course is a reference to pi, the only "anomaly" in an otherwise "perfect" system of numbers.
1) mathematics is the language of nature.
2) everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers.
3) if you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. therefore, there are patterns...everywhere in nature..." - from the film _Pi_

Thank you Trinity.
PI is a special number, no matter how you count, binary, decimal, or otherwise, and all over the world/galaxy/nature/universe you can see natural patterns concerning PI.
But let's return to the source.
The source of the way we conceive of numbers is with a system of counting based on 10 fingers.
10 is the "key", and even the "keys maker", of all our systems of counting. (we understand binary using our understanding of 10, and then we can even program computers on a pure binary "key").
PI is natural, but the natural source of the artificial Matrix of number obsessions, contains the perfect concept of 10.
How natural it is for the mind to see a man with 9 fingers ?
Ouch.
Few babies here and there all over history came to the world with "not-exactly-10-fingers-and-10-toes".
And even if they were and are, of course, a product of Nature, this was still referred to as an anomaly, and we still think of it as unnatural. 11 fingers are a natural anomaly, but if we see 9 fingers, we usually suppose it wasn't natural (from birth, or by an animal bite), but artificial (accident or incident, by humans and/or human-processed-matter).
(I hope I didn't upset anyone with my stating of "humans see handicaps as unnatural". This is not about my own bias and prejudice, and in no way do I mean they are "less human" or "not natural beings")
And all those feelings and assumptions, were much more common and socially-understood in ancient times, when the "Matrix of number obsessions" was in its beginning.
In the beginning of addressing numbers with a steady system of ten digits, or ten basic numbers.
In the movie, we reach 314, a digital representation of PI, according to Trinity. Thus, we somehow reach a natural element. It's still in the matrix, and it's still a digital-artificial representation, but it's a natural element. It's not dependent on the Matrix, and not a product of it, and it is even above the original-source-of-10.
PI is always an important number in nature, no matter how you count. The ratio between a radius and a circumference is always the same.
We even use it for degrees in angles, as the best base for advanced calculations.
We even write PI, and not some digits, when we address it in the matrix-of-number-obsessions.
In the movie PI, we see the obsession of numbers (*SPOILER*) develops and is finally over. He searches how patterns of numbers manifest in Nature and in the Stock-Market, and the viewers see how the numbers-obsession is affecting him.
He went directly for PI, a much more "natural" number than 10, or 9, or 11, or 23, or 13, or 666, or 2012, or 21.12.2012.
He thought it was about a possible consciousness in an artificial-digital-numeric structure.
And how it ends ?
(SPOILER
)
He sits, exhausted, looking at a tree, directly at nature, without looking for numbers anymore.
His uncompromising search, eventually showed him nature, which is beyond what a number-obsession can create, and is even beyond the natural-source-of-the-artificial-matrix-of-number-obsessions, beyond the 10 digits.
