1957 — 1962
Formation of language.
From the grid as formal order to the discovery of the bit and the logical network as a generative principle, color not as form but as the highlighting of a logical choice, presence - absence.
1963 — 1979
Periodo della certezza binaria
Il sistema è pienamente formalizzato a partire dai corsi IBM del 1963. Il bit è unità estetica certa e irriducibile. Parallelamente: ricerca fotografica in quattro tecniche sotto lampada di Wood.
1980 — 1999
Double ontology, Data-Find.
The work is simultaneously a replicable system (data) and a unique bodily trace (find).
The theoretical reflection deepens: "Binariacy and Two-Dimensional Space" (1980), then the entire textual sequence.
1999 — 2006
Final Summary, The Death of the Bit.
Extreme reduction. The bit as subject, no longer as instrument. The production concludes with the single work: "The Lonely Bit. The Abandoned Bit. Solitude of the Bit. The Death of the Bit." (2006).
