We focus on some examples that show the origins of two instances where the contemporary uses of digital infrared intertwine and co-exist: first, the need to map what is invisible to the human eye, and second, the need to track data and manage information flows.engInfrarotMedienarchäologieMedizinFotografieÜberwachunginfraredmedia archaeologymedical photographymilitary applicationsphototherapyresolutionsurveillance79110.25969/mediarep/34232213-0217
