In the time that I’ve known
Bucky Fuller, since
the late forties, he has had a vision of how [synergetics] could influence
music; and he has several times explained it to me. And I have as many
times not understood. . . . the thing that puts me off is
the presence
of mathematics, which has to do with specific relationships.
. . . it may be that it should be the work of someone else, rather than my own work, to bring the vision and ideas of Fuller into music.
