the story of monohook
"As a child, I was fascinated with the film '2001: A Space Odyssey' by Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke's book was one of my first introductions to the world of science fiction. I was particularly taken with the Monolith, I loved its precision, its perfect mathematical ratio and its dense blackness.”
'a large single vertical block of stone, especially one that was shaped into a column by people living in ancient times, and that may have had some religious meaning'
- Oxford Dictionary on 'Monolith'
“The monolith was 11 feet high, and 1¼ by 5 feet in cross-section. When its dimensions were checked with great care, they were found to be in the exact ratio 1 to 4 to 9—the squares of the first three integers.”
- 2001, A Space Odyssey
