And why take ye thought for what to blog today (sic)?Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
Mathew 6 : 29, King James Bible
Doth morning mail and email not arriveth just as surely?
First today, sent overnight from New York, Eric Baker's
("Give us this day our daily bread") regular email bundle of recent gleanings. From these, I set aside this one tagged fullerkuppel, which translates as Fuller dome.
In first year architecture (1970) bL learned about Buckminster Fuller and his geodesic dome. 'Bucky' was a pioneer of much that is of great import today.detail

Perhaps Fuller's interconnected system view, as represented by his triangular matrix, has been a seed of influence in bL's diamond matrix view. Here is Fuller, again.Richard Buckminster “Bucky” Fuller (July 12, 1895 – July 1, 1983) was an American architect, author, designer, inventor, and futurist.
Fuller published more than thirty books, inventing and popularizing terms such as "Spaceship Earth", ephemeralization, and synergetics. He also developed numerous inventions, mainly architectural designs, the best known of which is the geodesic dome. Carbon molecules known as fullerenes were later named by scientists for their resemblance to geodesic spheres.

Then the mail arrived. It included this leaflet from the Kagyu E-Vam Buddhist Institute. Voila! Is this not the same image, with the same view? In the foreground one who walks lightly on the earth/Earth, who looks with mindfulness upon the interdependent-arising that is City. Helicopters hover and at least one geodesic dome features in the mix.detail
