From this title I expected author to engrave the lens in a clever way so the noise matters on all photos would form something like his digital signature, but alas

Why would you do that kind of destructive thing? A dead pixel or two in the right place is equivalent

A lens is inanimate glass.

A consumer product.

A commodity.

A consumable like film and chemistry and paper.

Even oldest lenses are less than 200 years old.

Not ancient relics.

Artistic experiment is not wanton destruction.

Exactly. I expected some direct-to-matrix watermarking.
