- Title
Environment Study with Buckminster Fuller's Geometry.
- Authors
Cohen, Martin J.; Petrillo, Joseph
- Abstract
The article focuses on the two pilot programs which integrated the study of Buckminster Fuller's Energetic and Synergetic Geometry with Environment Study in California. The study is a system of experimental mathematics and is based on the study of the physical structures of finite lines or vectors where the structures may be created and the behaviors observed. The program was developed for the study of the physical world and traces the origin in the studies of elementary polyhedra by Plato and Pythagoras.
