Hello fellow Boston Evolvers,
I'm betting that many of you will be interested in attending this theater production entitled: "R. Buckminster Fuller: THE HISTORY (and Mystery) OF THE UNIVERSE"
"Journey through the universe on Spaceship Earth with the Leonardo da Vinci of the twentieth century as your guide. Futurist, environmentalist, and geodesic dome designer Bucky Fuller takes us on an adventure through his life and times—from his childhood in Massachusetts, to his meeting with Albert Einstein, to his breakthrough moments of invention. A visionary who anticipated many of the challenges the world faces today, Fuller shows us how to save humanity and the planet by doing more with less."
What: R. Buckminster Fuller: THE HISTORY (and Mystery) OF THE UNIVERSE
When: Jan 14 - Feb 5
Where: American Repertory Theater, Cambridge, MA
How much: $25 (for last two rows) - $75
There is a promotional code for discount tickets for the Jan 22 and 23rd events (code: THIRTYVERTI - see details below)
There is a special event happening in conjunction with this play on Jan 22, 23rd. After the Jan 22nd performance, George Hart of the Museum of Mathematics (MoMath) will lead a special human-scale geometry activity, and the Foundation for New Directions (FND) will present an exhibit of geometry and related subjects and artifacts developed by the late Dr. Marvin Solit, who was a founding member of the Synergetics Collaborative and FND. After the Sunday 23 January performances at the A.R.T., Thomas T. K. Zung will give a presentation about Lord Norman Foster's Dymaxion Car #4.

Tealuxe
Yeah I just saw this flyer at the Tealuxe in Harvard Sq today! This looks awesome and I think it would be great if Evolver could get into it/get involved or at least just have a group of people attend, and then maybe meet afterwards at a pub and talk about it.
Awesome... I'm going. Not
Awesome...
I'm going. Not sure to which showing, but I'm super excited about this.
You guys have any preference on a day?
greetings Bostonian
greetings Bostonian evolvers!
being brand spanking new to this area (*just* moved from Baltimore!), I have yet to meet any fellow Evolvers and also have yet to attend this awe-inspiration of a Bucky phenomenon ;)
if anyone happens to catch this in the next few days (aiming to go this weekend) & wants to meet up epic styles, lemme know!
♥
not to be missed
I went to this on Tuesday night. Fantastic! Bucky was way ahead of his time, discussing issues that are only just now becoming "current" on forums such as this. Must see! Don't miss it!
