@robinhouston that is, of course, a mere summary of that other Thing, the Needle Tower by Kenneth Snelson. In the garden of the Kröller-Müller Museum.

@josgeluk @robinhouston I lived there, a wonderfully stimulating environment. Older students told me that a concrete container (precisely calculated) had been sunk in the pond of the (then) applied mathematics building. It would surface at the time of the new moon (the sun and moon are in direct line from the Earth). Unfortunately, the container never surfaced.
