In the painting "The Three Professors," one holds a model of ancient Earth and one light and energy. The Earth is shown as it is breaking up into the continents. The Model, David, is holding Earth's globe when Earth was still covered with water, and hot jets of flame and smoke are rising from volcanoes where the continents are splitting into separate plates. The rods that Joel is holding was my first attempt to visualize energy and light moving through space, and matter being created with compression. The waves in the painting were two-dimensional visualization and are simplistic. Movement, expansion, and contraction needed to be shown undulating three-dimensional pulse. The frame has a globe on each corner. These globes show the same point in time as the globes pictured in the painting, "Titans π, "showing the continents at this point in Earth's history were submerged underwater. The symbols on the balls on the corners of the frame mark the different continents in Pitman's shorthand.
