Not sure if this is relevant or not, but it might be worth adding that the little dipper is not visible from the southern hemisphere.

Given that the sculpture is in Australia, that seems like a plausible clue to me.

Yeah, it's a good point. The end of the handle for the Little Dipper is Polaris, the North Star

I have it lined up now in Celestia, to see how it would project relative to someone looking down on the columns in Canberra from above, and seeing the LD thru the Earth. The whole constellation is flipped left-right, and would always be a bit under the horizon looking North, and skewed if projected on the ground plane.

Also filtered down to only visible stars.. looks more like HIP 90182

Another thing, pillar 4 (pillar instead of column on dcrypt.org) uses a constellation encoding

The list of films that use that song are (at least according to IMDB):

I guessed "dazed and confused" and was told that was incorrect. From the hint it would appear as though they were looking for "gone in 60 seconds"

Thank you! I also guessed Dazed and Confused and was confused when it wasn't right. Thank you for at least showing me I'm not crazy.

I did not know IMDB offered this, thank you!

Probably the most interesting representation anything related to this I've seen is the stalk-eyed fly[1]. Their compound eyes are at the end of long stalks, and apparently the primary reason for this is to attract a mate.

I'll also +1 this, it is a great read. Has to be top 5 interesting books I have read over the years.

actually I believe that was "Calculus for the Practical Man" by J.E. Thompson and it is also an excellent read.

As others have mentioned, one of the most valuable aspects is critique and all the benefits of being able to be critical of what you see as well as what you make in a constructive way.

The other useful bit of knowledge that I employ rather often is frequently referred to as the creative process. The process of starting with a rough exploration and refining it iteratively, or moving quickly through many explorations until you find one you'd like to refine. Basically, a toolset that enables you to go from nothing to something regardless of the tools you are using.

Haskell for an assorted collection of command line tools.

That was awesome, I'd love to hear some more manuals like that, perhaps something for programming.

I haven't seen this it years. Thanks!

looks like that is where it goes for auto updates.

That's it
