Excerpts from a conversation between R. Buckminster Fuller and Reyner Banham

Lightweight domes designed by Buckminster Fuller, the American inventor, have been erected all over the world in the last few years.

In this recording, made in London in June, Mr. Fuller speaks about the structural principles of his domes and about ways in which they might be used to transform parts of our environment.
