Student work from “How to Build a Geodesic Dome: In-Situ Resource Utilization (I.S.R.U.),” a workshop taught by visiting lecturer and artist Tom Sachs with Nicholas de Monchaux and Zain Karsan. Over the summer, through remote collaboration, MIT Architecture students built their own 3v geodesic domes from a material, making do with what they have around them, in the spirit of I.S.R.U. The domes were part of a tradition of geodesic building by MIT Architecture students dating back to Buckminster Fuller’s dome in 1954. Through this course, the tradition was reimagined to reflect the circumstances and challenges of this time. Each student created a 1-min film to contextualize their dome.
