Abstract
A DNA canvas comprising a plurality of uniquely-coded polymer strands immobilized on a substrate can be used to provide a reference map comprising a set of reference association polymers having a dual-barcode generated by nondestructively associating spatially-adjacent polymers on the DNA canvas, encoding digital information on the DNA canvas to provide a patterned DNA canvas by disabling a pattern of selected plurality of polymers strands to provide a set of data association polymers having a single bar code that corresponds to a single bit in the bitmap. The digital information capable of being retrieved by sequencing the set of reference and data association polymers, computationally recovering spatial locations of each of the selected polymer strands that were disabled and recovering the bitmap encoded in the pattern of disabled polymer strands by comparison of the set of reference association polymer sequences to the set of data association polymer sequences.
