  We give an octonionic formulation of the N = 1 supersymmetry algebra in D =
11, including all brane charges. We write this in terms of a novel outer
product, which takes a pair of elements of the division algebra A and returns a
real linear operator on A. More generally, with this product comes the power to
rewrite any linear operation on R^n (n = 1,2,4,8) in terms of multiplication in
the n-dimensional division algebra A. Finally, we consider the reinterpretation
of the D = 11 supersymmetry algebra as an octonionic algebra in D = 4 and the
truncation to division subalgebras.
