interesting !
wonderful this
All the best, thanks for the visit:)

da müsste mal wieder gefegt werden :-))

Two fantastic images............I especially the one in the PiP - I love the complete chaos..!!

Abandonné certes... mais pourquoi un tel ravage !!!

Like Jocelyne I am astonished at these buildings left with all the artifacts they contain. Abandoned and yet there is so much that has a value.

I am thinking exactly the same thing, Jean!

The invention of the punched card system is attributed to Joseph-Marie Charles known as Jacquard born 1752 the introduction of looms controlled by his cards was not popular as it reduced skilled weavers to machine minders, Google him it's worth reading the history. Your comment of it being a software programming tool is actually correct that's how computers started

Many thanks Peter for your excellent comment!

Si la foto es buena y la máquina interesante. Al principio los trabajos para los ordenadores pasaban por las máquinas perforadoras, yo las recuerdo como cartulinas perforadas.

Interesting and beautiful

Je suis toujours à la recherche de friches industrielles . ******************************

Excellent, as usual Berny !
