SUNY Oswego will celebrate the late architect, environmentalist, author and inventor R. Buckminster Fuller in March with a “live documentary” of Fuller’s life and ideas directed by Sam Green with music performed onstage by pioneering indie band Yo La Tengo.
Best known for the geodesic dome, Fuller often—though less widely known—is acknowledged as a father of the modern sustainability movement. Fuller drew an overflow crowd for his talk on campus in 1973, and during his visit offered a $1,000 prize for a workable idea for harnessing the power of Lake Ontario’s waves.
Green, accompanied by Yo La Tengo, will appear at 7:30 p.m. March 16 in Hewitt ballroom. The live documentary project premiered at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and has played at creative venues and festivals from The Kitchen in New York City to the Barbican in London. Green was nominated for an Academy Award in 2004 for “The Weather Underground.” Yo La Tengo is noted for 14 eclectic albums and frequent use of their tracks as instrumental interludes on National Public Radio.
General admission tickets are $20 ($5 for SUNY Oswego students) and are available at all SUNY Oswego box offices, online at tickets.oswego.edu and by calling 315-312-2141. Parking is included in the price of a ticket and is available in the employee lot in front of Culkin Hall and in the rear half of the employee/commuter lot behind Hart and Funnelle residence halls.
