“The stelae inc. Plans to erect and maintain a large public monument in central florida. Principally, the monument consists of 3376 engraved granite slabs (the stelae), to be erected in a logarithmic spiral on the designated site. The site will also feature sixteen aeolian harps. Taken together, the monument will provide a space in which the public may experience both a sculptural installation and the visual representation of literary texts. The stelae will be engraved with works of poetry, prose, and graphic arts - (eleven novels, an autobiography, and more than a hundred poems) - based on a personalized, free translation of the hebrew tanakh (the christian old testament) - and constituting one literary epic that involves the relationship between a father and son, the life of a small southern community, and a journal written by the son as he and his father drive around the five continents of the world. For the latter part of the stelae's story, many of the granite slabs will contain the engravings of analogies between linguistics, music, and natural phenomena such as spectral lines, phyllotaxis, planetary orbits, the sounds of wildlife, and human dna. These analogies lead to the work's climax, in which art and science are combined to create a theoretically universal language, and to assert the immortality of each person's logos, or word. In sum, the stelae will provide the public an opportunity to consider the relations between the natural world and human creation, to connect all things back to first principles, and to ponder the relationship between the physical and the divine. In its entirety, the monument will advance the stelae's purpose to provide several public benefits. The first of the stelae's charitable purposes is the erection and maintenance of a public monument in and of itself. The stelae monument further advances the arts, science, and education by providing a unique presentation of interrelated concepts on a large scale for public access and exploration. The erection and maintenance of the monument is the primary purpose of the stelae. While the stelae contemplates eventually expanding its educational mission and activities, at this time and for the subsequent seven years the monument's construction and maintenance will consume the entirety of its time and efforts. The monument's construction is to be funded by a combination of initial donations and grants. The monument's maintenance is to be funded by ongoing public and private contributions to the stelae.”
