Nature's Design
A nine week course exploring a new kind of practical geometry based on the work of R. Buckminster Fuller.
It is possible to scientifically define and exactly measure nature's most-efficient-minimum-energy state - Simplicity Itself. Inside this "field order" can be found nature's basic patterns, structures, systems and states. Over the course of nine weeks we will explore Fuller's fundamental design principle of doing more with less.
Using Fuller's explorations in Synergetic geometry we will examine — through hands-on modeling - design approaches which incorporate:
* The most economical use of material and space
* The least effort to realize and replicate
* The most accommodation to change
* A unified measuring system
