Abstract
The fermionic and supersymmetric octonionic bimodular representations are constructed. It is shown that an octonionic formulation of the fermion leads to an intrinsically ten-dimensional world with two independent representations. Consistency conditions for an octonionic supersymmetric algebra are also discussed.Keywords
