No text, but a visual code

We were going a bit too much off topic, posts moved.

Antonio:

The thing with Panofsky is that we really only have relatively informal quotes from him. For any analysis to be authoritative, you really need a formal publication. Of course, what someone like Panofsky said is certainly interesting and worth reading. But what we have now is an opinion without much substance, which unfortunately does not allow us to see what exactly is meant and to interact with the argumentation. It's more of a take it or leave it kind of scenario.

Also, his statements were made decades ago. All scientific disciplines have moved since then. The cutting edge of today is the old fashioned of tomorrow.
