Irene Kopelman: Notes on Representation - vol. 9 - Indexing Water

This 9th volume in Kopelman's series Notes on Representation, is dedicated to Dr. Marcel Wernand, a physical oceanographer who engaged in the research of Forel-Ule scale - a hand-held index to estimate the colour of natural waters since the nineteenth century. This book functions as the Forel-Ule scale itself, reproduced as printed matter in solid, opaque colours. It also brings together fragments, both of Wernand's writings and of recorded conversations, which took place at different moments in 2017.
