«Digitale Partituren (nach Nicephore Niépce)»

The «Digitalen Partituren» refer back to the origin of analog photography, Nicéphore Niépce's «Blick aus dem Arbeitszimmer» (view from his studio), presumably from 1926, here represented as a digital code. On eight boards the complete alphanumerical description of the first preserved photography is found, varied according to eight different encodings and typographies. Cf. also http://www.foto.unibas.ch/~rundbrief/les811.htm
