Buckminster Fuller Challenge


As if Fuller's work weren't inspiration enough, the Buckminster Fuller Institute is offering a 100K prize for "design science solutions within a broad range of human endeavor that exemplify the trimtab principle. Trimtabs demonstrate how small amounts of energy and resources precisely applied at the right time and place can produce maximum advantageous change." More here. For those at a loss, I'd like to recommend starting by building a geodesic dome...inspiration is sure to follow. The ideas are up to you.
