easy one

Where will you find this:
On the reverse is the inscription (in Latin):

" CONGREGATI

EX TOTO ORBE

_______________

OB SCRIPTA INSIGNIA

TRIBUERE

"

Translation: "The _______________ having congregated from the whole world awarded because of outstanding writings."

In the background, there is the representation of Archimedes' tomb, with the carving of his theorem on the Sphere and the Cylinder (a sphere and a circumscribed cylinder of the same height and diameter, the result of which he was most proud) behind a branch.

X wrote some original music that was used in Y's film A and was reported to only have been paid one mu for doing so.
Y directed a scene in X's film B (also reported to be paid one mu in return) and loaned him some swords from A to use for a character.

I bow to thee...

  1. A is a American southern rock band. It was pretty famous and visible worldwide before several members of the band were killed in a plane crash in 1977. The band's name is a mocking tribute to the gym teacher of the vocalist's school who enforced a rule in school against boy's long hairs. Id A.....
  2. Most of the music of song 'B' was written by X while the lyrics came from Y's experience when he was injected tranquilizers for hepatitis by a doctor before a band show. X and Y disagreed about how to record the song, finally deciding after much fighting on Y's opening and X's ending on solos to give a memorable track. Giveaway (literally).. B, X, Y.

You like dawgs???


Connect A and B

A (see pic) is a Grammy nominated British vocalist and artist of Tamilian descent.
