Over two decades, Professor Wilfried Wang took thousands of slides with the robust single lens reflex camera (Leica SL2 either with the Zeiss Biogon 21mm wide angle lens or with the Vario-Elmar 14-50mm lens). Over the past few years, Professor Wang has been systematically donating his collection to the School of Architecture (SoA) Visual Resources Collection (VRC). The VRC has in turn been digitizing and cataloging the slides so that digital versions are available to SoA faculty and students to support teaching and research.
