Requested Information July 7, 2009
Just thought I would take some time out to send a request myself to CIA, to see what information I might get back. I did get back a prompt personal email.
(Felt a bit guilty, knowing she had much more important things to do then send emails about Kryptos, but she was very kind and patient)
QUESTION
...
I am requesting any and all information about the Kryptos pieces, copper shaped "S", whirlpool, reflective pool, granite strata and associated pieces and structures.

Located in the northwest corner of the New Headquarters Building courtyard is a sculpture by artist James Sanborn entitled "Kryptos." Dedicated on November 3, 1990, the theme of this sculpture is "intelligence gathering." "Kryptos" incorporates native American materials such as wood and metal. A piece of petrified wood supports a large S-shaped copper screen that looks like a piece of paper coming out of a computer printer. On the "paper" are inscribed several enigmatic messages, each written in a different code. The sculpture continues to be a source of pleasure and mystery for Agency employees with a few employees taking the challenge to "break the code."
