From the 1820's, Louis Daguerre and Nicéphore Niépce, two inventors of photography, started a correspondance about their discoveries using an encrypted language based on numbers. Raphaël Dallaporta used a digitalized file of 'La Table servie', a lost photography by Nicéphore Niépce, and implemented the secret numbers within the file code.
