    Extractions: "T he Dark Ages still reign over all humanity, and the depth and persistence of this domination are only now becoming clear. This Dark Ages prison has no steel bars, chains, or locks. Instead, it is locked by misorientation and built of misinformation. Caught up in a plethora of conditioned reflexes and driven by the human ego, both warden and prisoner attempt meagerly to compete with God. All are intractably skeptical ol what they do not understand. We are powerfully imprisoned in these Dark Ages simply by the terms in which we have been conditioned to think." R. Buckminster Fuller , from "Cosmography" (MacMillan, 1932) R. Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) sometimes called "the planet's friendly genius," gained renown as an inventor and designer of the Dymaxion House, the Dymaxion Car, the Dymaxion Map, and the Geodesic dome - the only structure that actually gets stronger as it gets larger. As a philosopher and systems thinker, he coined the term "Spaceship Earth" and organized the World Game.

    Extractions: R. Buckminster Fuller Inventor, architect, engineer and utopian visionary, R. Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) was one of the century's most original thinkers. In 1927 Fuller designed the factory-assembled Dymaxion house, followed in 1928 by the three-wheeled Dymaxion car, for which Isamu Noguchi would sculpt a model. Fuller is most well-known for his later invention of the geodesic dome, and for his holistic proposals to solve the world's economic, social and ecological problems. Fuller's emphasis on the humanistic use of science and technology was a strong influence on the work of Isamu Noguchi, whom he met in 1929. That year Noguchi sculpted a chrome-plated head of Fuller, and they developed a close friendship that lasted until Fuller's death in 1983. Buckminster Fuller and Isamu Noguchi also shared a collaboration with architect Shoji Sadao, Executive Director of The Isamu Noguchi Foundation, Inc. , who started working with Fuller in the mid-Fifties (founding Fuller and Sadao, Inc. in 1960) and whose collaboration with Noguchi on the sculptor's landscape projects began in the early 1960s.

Observatories, bathhouses, theaters, and temples are traditionally crowned with the magical shape of a Dome. In modern times Domes have been largely popularized by R. Buckminster Fuller. Using sacred geometry Bucky created geodesic designs that have been used in major architectural works worldwide. Both visually appealing and structurally superior , the geodesic Dome has been known to be the only thing standing after hurricane winds, and even a direct blast of the Atomic bomb at Hiroshima.

    Extractions: I AM NOW CLOSE TO 88 and I am confident that the only thing important about me is that I am an average healthy human. I am also a living case history of a thoroughly documented, half-century, search-and-research project designed to discover what, if anything, an unknown, moneyless individual, with a dependent wife and newborn child, might be able to do effectively on behalf of all humanity that could not be accomplished by great nations, great religions or private enterprise, no matter how rich or powerfully armed. I started out fifty-six years ago, at the age of 32, to make that experiment. By good fortune I had acquired a comprehensive experience in commanding and handling ships, first as a sailor in Penobscot Bay, Maine, and later as a regular U.S. naval officer. The navy is inherently concerned with not only all the world's oceans, but also the world's dry land emanating exportable resources and import necessities and the resulting high seas commerce. The navy is concerned with all vital statistics. I saw that there was nothing to stop me from thinking about our total planet Earth and thinking realistically about how to operate it on an enduringly sustainable basis as the magnificent human-passengered spaceship that it is. Planet Earth is a superbly conceived and realized 6,586,242,500,000,000,000,000-ton (over 6.5 sextillion tons) spaceship, cruise-speeding frictionlessly and soundlessly on an incredibly accurate celestial course. Spaceship Earth's spherical passenger deck is largely occupied by a 140-million-square-mile "swimming pool, " whose three principal widenings are called oceans.

    Extractions: by Sarah Feldman Click the yellow arrows above to read other essays on Buckminster Fuller. Jobless, without savings or prospects, with a wife and newborn daughter to support, suicidal and drinking heavily, in 1927 Richard Buckminster Fuller had little reason to be optimistic about the future. R. Buckminster Fuller or "Bucky," as he's affectionately known transformed that low point in his life into a catalyst for transforming our planet's future and as well as his own. A mathematical genius, environmentalist, architect, cartographer, poet, and an engineer of rare foresight and a philosopher of unique insight, Fuller was born in 1895 but can be truly considered a 21st century man. Renouncing personal success and financial gain, at age 32 Fuller set out to "search for the principles governing the universe and help advance the evolution of humanity in accordance with them." Central to his mission were the ideas that 1) he had to divest himself of false ideas and "unlearn" everything he could not verify through his own experience, and 2) human nature and nature itself could not be reformed and therefore it was the environment and our response to it that must be changed. Fuller entered into a two-year period of total seclusion, and began working on design solutions to what he inferred to be mankind's central problems.

    Extractions: R. BUCKMINSTER FULLER Inventor / Visionary Fuller was a 20th century inventor, mathematician and futurist. Philosophically he was concerned with meeting the needs of a growing global civilization while reducing the use of natural resources; his inventions were meant to achieve those goals by simplifying and improving human housing and the objects of daily life. Never quite a mainstream figure, Fuller was viewed by some as an impractical dreamer but embraced by others as a visionary genius. His most famous invention, the geodesic dome, uses a series of interlocking triangles to create a lightweight, sturdy dome which needs no internal supports.

    Extractions: Who was R. Buckminster Fuller? by Dr. Graeme Edwards Early in his career, R. Buckminster Fuller, fondly known as "Bucky," was kicked out of Harvard University. Not once, but twice! Amazingly, by the end of his career - when he died in 1983 at the age of 88 - he had received 48 honorary degrees and doctorates. Although he had not "worked for a living" for 56 years, he was incredibly productive. He designed his life by living by a set of principles and self-discipline. Those principles can be summarized as " to recognize the value of each and every individual, and recognize the value of individuals who choose to work together." Bucky saw power in this because "together, we can be of greater service to our community." He observed that the greater number of people he chose to serve, the more effective he became. During his career, he wrote 22 books, many of which are still in print and available at libraries and bookstores. He was an adviser to a variety of governments, including the U.S., France, Brazil, China, India and Russia. More than that, Bucky was a friend to many: Mahatma Gandhi, John Denver (who wrote a song about Bucky called "What one man can do"), Albert Einstein and notable aviators Amelia Earhart and Sir Charles Kingsford Smith. Einstein felt that Bucky had a "true and intuitive understanding of his work." He marveled at Bucky's ability to turn this theory into practice. He once said, "Young man, you amaze me. I cannot conceive of anything I have ever done, having the slightest practical application." Bucky, while being a great thinker, was also a very practical man.

    Extractions: R. Buckminster Fuller was best known for his geodesic domes. This fact has both helped and hampered our efforts to draw attention to his synergetic geometry, the "invention behind the inventions." Scientists will typically make the link between the shape of a virus or carbon molecule, and the dome's distinctive architecture, but then stop short of exploring the underlying tetrahedral geometry, because "architecture" is not virology or chemistry, and because "synergetics" is not in their vocabulary.
