The continual repositioning of the past in relation to the present.



Golly. i haven't been on here in a while. Should try to use it to get my straights thoughtened out. Been forced to think a lot about ethnography within photography lately. Applied for a Fellowship at the Smithsonian. Had to make up a lot of gumf about stuff I don't really know anything about. Fear of the unknown. Fear of the Future. Fear of the Past - all filtered through photography. The eye on History.

Anyway, some thoughts;

Buckminster Fuller

The Pease Dome Company of Hamilton, Ohio

Geodesic Domes
...
Futurism - positivism

A geodesic dome made out of pictures of geodesic domes?

Latin – American architecture

Italian futurist/fascist architecture
Wichita Grass House 

 
R. Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion House.
