Olumo Rock Lion: Poetizing Engineering and Engineering Poetry (PEEP)
Olumo Rock Lion: Poetizing Engineering and Engineering Poetry invites readers to journey into a unique fusion of art, mathematics, science, architecture, poetry, and engineering, where the intricate structures of poetry meet the rigorous precision of engineering. This collection of sonnets embarks on an exploration that bridges seemingly disparate worlds, revealing their shared foundations of creativity, balance, and ingenuity.
"This collection is one to be read in its entirety because of its expected richness in storytelling, and also in its uncanny ability to illustrate Mathematical relationships from the domain of the Mathematical Sciences (e.g. Quadratic Equations) and Engineering (e.g. Circuits). An unusual, but brilliant collection of sonnets which illustrates that seemingly unrelated disciplinary areas (poetry, architecture, engineering, and Mathematics) can be made to interact and enrich each other." Mohammed A. Qazi, Professor of Mathematics, 2021 Presidential Awardee for Excellence in Science, Mathematics and Engineering Mentoring (PAESMEM)
"Bill F. Ndi's Olumo Rock Lion: Poetizing Engineering and Engineering Poetry (PEEP) is a collection inspired by a rare occasion during a personal encounter with Wole Soyinka, an enigma and an elder whose work had long roused both intellectual awe and creative hesitation and pure admiration for his rare abilities. That singular meeting in faraway Rabat, birthed Bill's conscious reflection on a unique interpretation of literary work unseen before. What sets this collection apart is not just the tribute it pays figuratively. Its appeal lies more in the method it reveals. It moves with unmatched precision, confidence, asking the reader to notice how tightly the ideas are formed." Prof. Toyin Falola, Historical Society of Nigeria, Nigerian Academy of Letters, University of Texas at Austin
