The picture consists of two elements, a photograph of the Morse alphabet, which is a central theme in the work of Brigitte Kowanz. And as a second level the eponymous sentence "A patient waiter is no loser". This sentence was the first message transmitted in 1838 using Morse code. From today's point of view, in view of a digitalised, globalised and accelerated information society, this sentence has acquired enormous significance and recharging.
