Hey, I'm an undergraduate chemistry major at SUNY Albany in New York. This blog is for anything I find interesting. I have many interests: chemistry, math, philosophy, poetry, libertarianism, etc. I have some hero's who I hope to find on tumblr more often who include: Buckminster Fuller, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Carl Jung, Marshall Mcluhan, Kurt Godel, John Muir and more. Any questions about anything, just ask.
An 85-minute documentary on one of the twentieth century’s Renaissance man, an architect, inventor, scientist, teacher, writer and philosopher. He’s known for his inventions, like the geodesic domes, or the dymaxion car.
My favorite documentary
Marshall McLuhan and Buckminster Fuller
Two of the greatest minds of the 20th century, and sadly two of the most under-appreciated.
This is a great article showcasing several letters written by Marshall McLuhan to his contemporaries, from Tom Wolfe to Buckminster Fuller. It is a fantastic read.
