| "Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Elizabeth again: The whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing on the edge of the rudder called a trim tab. It's a miniature rudder. Just moving that little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. It takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the individual can be a trim tab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you altogether. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole ship of state is going to turn around. So I said, 'Call me Trim Tab.'" - Buckminster Fuller Links We LikeCoconut plastic and flying cars (How We Got To Next) On children, Minecraft, and the human connection (The New Yorker) "The carving will continue until nothing is left but sawdust" (Creative Capital) Perfection, performance, and the allure of the kids' menu (Guernica Magazine) Teach a computer to see fish, and it will see fish for a lifetime (Google Research Blog) PopularCommemorating Yosemite's 125th anniversary All 468 NYC subway stations in one handsome poster Five entirely new musical instruments with unlimited potential Why's everyone smiling?
