Notes
Kornshell is a computer programming language invented by David Korn in the early 1980s. The fact that it is symbolically represented by a fossilized nautilus shell speaks to the use of photography as metaphoric representation of factually unrelated subject matter. compare Purcell's cover image to that of Edward Weston.
