Buckminster Fuller (Wikipedia). Fascinating chap. Particuarly intrigued by his notion of “recycling resources into newer, higher value products” which ties into a lot of cultural / artistic ideas I’m interested in (skip diving, modified cameras, potentials of junk, that kind of thing).

    Some great Bucky-quotes…

    “Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we’ve been ignorant of their value.”

    “There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it’s going to be a butterfly.”

    And he was the guy that realised the ‘universe in nonsimultaneously apprehended’.

    In short he was The Daddy :)
