i can insert a hex value for a character literal in a string:

>>> print stuff

can i do something like the above, but using a *binary* number? (e.g.
00101101 instead of 45) ?

There's no way to get a binary value directly into a literal, but you
can convert one into a string value, as follows:
x = 0b00101101
print x
print chr(x)
output is:
45

Note that this is decimal 45, which is different than the hex 45 you
used in your first example.
For doing multiple characters, I can't see anything better than:
lis = [0b00101101, 0b01000101, 0b01100001]
print lis
s= "".join(chr(x) for x in lis)
print s
