Geodesics

Geodesics by Naomi Reis

Naomi Reis' "Geodesics" series

The "Geodesics" series is a tribute to the spirit of investigation into the frontiers of science and engineering, in particular the innovations of Buckminster Fuller, a futurist and early advocate of sustainability who coined the phrase "spaceship Earth.” His geodesic spheres became symbols of an optimistic movement toward an improved future, a utopian quest to improve the world through efficient and better design. As curator Nicole Caruth writes about the series, “Geodesic Spheres embody many different ideas about digital systems and globalization, the architectures of the web, and to the unknowns of future technologies.”

On a large LED wall located near the Lincoln Center in New York, artist John Gerrard is showing Solar Reserve, a realistic video game type of art that shows computer-generated images of a Nevada solar thermal power plant and its surrounding desert landscape. The dizzying world includes a tower that’s surrounded by 10,000 mirrors that adjust their positions in real-time according to the location of the sun.
