Answering that question is easy. The most general method of representing things is to use bits.
All that remains is the matter of filling in the details. Some of the first details that should be filled in would be a specification of what exactly "generality" means with regards to "representing" "things." Until there *is* such a specification, I assert that the particular task you are trying to solve is unspecified.
