ADDITIONAL NOTES:
back in college, i had a small obsession with inventor, architect, mathematician, engineer buckminster fuller and his geodesic dome work. — based upon his idea of "doing more with less." Fuller discovered that if a spherical structure was created from triangles, it would have unparalleled strength... The spherical structure of a dome is one of the most efficient interior atmospheres for human dwellings because air and energy are allowed to circulate without obstruction. This enables heating and cooling to occur naturally. — above: Montreal's Expo '67 Biosphere. The largest building of its kind in the world, Bucky designed it.in nyc, matt writes about the impending subway camera ban (with input from me, slower, jake, joe's nyc, hnorthrop and /sl), in the Village Voice:
