Mr. Silly Posted September 4, 2020 Share #4 Posted September 4, 2020 I went to a lecture by Buckminster Fuller back in 1980. It was a fascinating lecture. He spoke for about three hours with no notes. The audience was captivated the whole time. His inventions were hit and miss. I often see his octet truss used for support and his dymaxion air-ocean world map is pretty cool. On the other hand, his dymaxion house and car were both impractical.

JerrySTL ★ Posted September 4, 2020 Share #5 Posted September 4, 2020 There are a lot of geodesic dome houses and buildings in the St. Louis area. He popularized them and even suggested putting a dome over East St. Louis to filter out pollution and have climate control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
