Meet
with R. Buckminster Fuller, inventor, architect, engineer,
mathematician, businesman, poet and philosopher; clearly one of the
most exciting minds of our century. Brad Armstrong’s
characterization evokes the essence of a talk with Bucky: congenial,
entertaining, wide ranging, humanistic and sharp-witted. Using
colorful props and projections, BUCKY takes the audience on a
transformative journey into the playful mind of a genius at
work. Here is a man who set out to change the course of
history, not through politics but through invention. The
physical objects he created like the geodesic dome and Dymaxion map
deliberately and spontaneously re-orient us to reality. Bucky
most treasured human beings’ unique ability to understand and
participate in the underlying patterns of the universe. It was
his unshakable belief that each of us here on "Spaceship
Earth" has a singular contribution to make toward bettering the
whole planet’s welfare- and that exactly that, and no less, is the
success for which mankind is designed. |
