We held a workshop where local children assembled R. Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome.
REPORT
Currently, a model of Buckminster Fuller is being prepared as one of the pieces for the 2nd floor exhibition that opens this weekend.
We gathered children from second to sixth grade at elementary schools in Karuizawa to help assemble the models.
The inventor of the geodesic dome, R. Buckminster Fuller, was an American architect and thinker.
The dome structure, which is made by dividing the surface and combining triangles to approximate a sphere, is an excellent structure that is used in places like the weather observatory on the summit of Mt. Fuji, the US observation base in Antarctica, and the US pavilion at the Montreal World's Fair.
The dome that we made with the children this time is a commercialized paper dome, a hemisphere made by assembling halves of a sphere-like polyhedron.
Led by a boy just starting sixth grade, the team compared the finished diagram with the instructions and completed the project smoothly and enthusiastically in just over an hour.
a surprise.
Thank you to everyone who helped!
And "FureFure", who is planning the art appreciation workshop,
We would like to thank Minegishi-san.
