... as well as hundreds of articles, and thousands of hours
of speeches, and took copious volumes of notes. HERE
[IS] just a small but comprehensive sampling of the
highlights of his archive. Some of my own books were
purchased from Het Boekhuis in Sittard NL, and it was
during that [TIME] when I first became aware of and started
purchasing copies of the dezeen magazine, which I began
to follow here in the UK, following it's own launch into a
presence in cyberspace & on the internet, so to speak.
I first became aware of Fuller's Vector Equilibrium IDEA • as a geometric form, during my 6th Form Maths, Physics & Art studies • as the only geometric form where all vectors are of equal length, including from its centre point out to its circumferential vertices and the edges connecting all of those vertices, and was thus encouraged to read NINE CHAINS TO THE MOON in our splendidly equipped Grammar School Library.
A Grammar School which was closed only five years after both Linnie & I left, as a result of a disastrous decision by our so-called Lords & Masters • Linnie for her own training as a radiographer & I to start my joint Civil/Military Upper Airspace Area Radar Training with the MOA/MOD • after obtaining my Private Pilot / Meteorology certification.
Quantum physically, the Vector Equilibrium represents the ultimate and perfect state in which the movement of energy comes into perfect balance. [IT] IS also seen as the starting point of all energy and the conceptual geometry of the zero point, the vacuum of our space, and the Unified Field In Physics, equilibrium arises if the vector sum of all forces acting upon a particle or rigid body [IS] 'O' ZERO

ONLY when the last tree has died

and the last fish been caught will
WE REALISE that ...

BuckminsterFuller's concern with fine-tuning
communication, developing and using words that
are consistent with scientific reality, is one facet of
the role of language with respect to synergetics.

Buckminster Fuller's Comprehensive and anticipatory design initiative alone • exclusive of politics and political theory • can solve the problems of human shelter, nutrition, transportation, and pollution; and it can solve these with a fraction of the materials now inefficiently used.
Moreover, energy, ever more available, directed by cumulative information stored in computers, is capable of synthesizing raw materials, of machining and packaging commodities, and of supplying the physical needs of [THE] total global population.
Fuller was a research professor at Southern Illinois University (Carbondale) from 1959 to 1968. In 1968 he was named university professor, in 1972 distinguished university professor, and in 1975 university professor emeritus.
Queen Elizabeth II awarded Fuller the Royal Gold Medal for Architecture. He also received the 1968 Gold Medal Award of the National Institute of Arts and Letters.
