Bible: scriptorium like calligraphy writing of the bible by an industrial robot

From: jwj Sent: Mo.7Sep09
The installation 'bios [bible]' consists of an industrial robot, which writes down the bible on rolls of paper. The machine draws the calligraphic lines with high precision. Like a monk in the scriptorium it creates step by step the text.

Starting with the old testament and the books of Moses bios [bible] produces within seven months continuously the whole book. All 66 books of the bible are written on rolls and then retained and presented in the library of the installation.
