Aluminum rods of varying length, hung in varying distances from the ceiling., L. Kirkland 1988; Oregon St. Univ.; Engineering College; Maxwell's EQ, The symbols scattered around the atrium form a kind of puzzle which reflects the scientist's focus on the ingredients of a solution, rather than the final solution. Hanging aluminum rods represent a sound wave, as on an oscilloscope. A steel X sculpture outdoors represents a vector field. The stone pieces indoors represent the symbols E, D, B, H, Delta, a point and an equal sign. Some of the sandblasted quotes are whimsical, as in Samuel Butler's "A hen is only an egg's way of making another egg." Kirkland's favorite is from a T. S. Eliot poem: "Where is the knowledge we have lost in information? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?" Kirkland said he is pleased with his effort in stone and the way it relates to the people who will see it. "I think that a public commission needs to be responsive to the people, to a specific audience."

Black, three-dimesional "b" and "d" forms, both bearing white inscriptions. Depth of field prevents the discerning of most of them, except the one toward the belly of the "d." It is from T.S. Eliot and it reads, "Where is the knowledge we have lost in information? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?", L.
