Monoliths

Participants in SFI's "The Origin and Implications of Time in Adaptive Systems" workshop pose in front of Monolith Alpha on SFI’s Cowan campus.
Overview

The latest outdoor additions to the SFI Cowan and Miller campuses

Three slate monoliths, including Monolith Alpha, above, will be the latest outdoor additions to the SFI Cowan and Miller campuses. Functional as chalkboards, these monoliths can also be lowered to serve as meeting tables.

The monoliths have been generously funded by the Miller Omega Program.
