I started a new version of the language encoding images using the analogue method. I called it “code picture”. Below is the difference between the two coding types, the old “Note Painting” and the new “Code Picture.”

“The Song for Itself” DataMatrix NP001/22 is a non-musical song that is also a QR code leading to itself.

The QR code was written on the stave using the Note Painting coding method and then painted on a 60 x 60 cm canvas with acrylic paint. The notation included the use of black and white.

The QR code image brought you here to see the analogue Note Painting code written on the stave and encoding.

Below you can see the original sketch of the code and download the PDF with the explanation and idea.
