AN INVISIBLE REVOLUTION
A Conversation with David McConville and Glenn English

August 27th, 1 PM EDT
Register to join us on Zoom

This event will be simulcast live to our Facebook Page

Twenty years after teaching at Black Mountain College, Buckminster Fuller published his provocative Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth. A manifesto for a design revolution, it radically influenced a generation’s thinking about the purpose and potential of humanity. Fifty years later, however, Fuller’s vision of a regenerative civilization seems like a distant memory that is more relevant than ever. An Invisible Revolution illuminates this original vision, its relationship to his time at BMC, and its contemporary significance for 21st century understanding of humanity’s relation to its home planet.

Join David McConville and Glenn English for an in-depth conversation on the life and work of R. Buckminster Fuller. We recommend that everyone watch An Invisible Revolution in preparation for this discussion. Doing so will ensure that you get the most from the event.
