Beancounters Delight
Three terrains: the calculator (Calc98), the columns (made with CityGenerator) and my sig. The ground plane is partly transpartent and partly reflecting. Lit by the ?Sixties? HDRI I made from an artwork and to the specifications of David. Settings are: quality 64, intensity 5.5 and effect 100. Renders in less than an hour.

* Very cool! How the heck did you do all of the different colors on the towers?????I love what you did with the lighting.
Smartypants are you all! Love any and all references to physics!!!!! The rainbow hdri could not have found a better home. Nice work!
Right, it's Boltzis constant. The dots also surprised me. No idea where they come from but they may indicate the flaw that is inherent to each and every statistic. Thanks for your kind comments.
An appealing and humerous image. Good use of terrains and the lighting is in keeping with the colourful collums. I'm thinking the dots observed by Spektyr are maybe beans? Boltzmann Constant - but I needed to use Wikipedia to get that answer.
Actally I can't think of it off hand. The question in my mind right now is "What's with the red dots?" For your next trick why don't you design an infinite improbability generator......or maybe just a Bambleweeny 57 Submeson Brain. ;-)
Thanks spektyr. I didn't forget any - there was no room to include them :) I'm sure you figured out which is the left constant. How about the right one? Hint: begins with a B.
I had to study this one for a while. The effects of the HDRI are amazing with the criss-cross color patters it throws. As for the calculator, are your sure you didn't forget any functions? ;-)
