Dymaxion Chronofile
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Dymaxion Chronofile is Buckminster Fuller's attempt to document his life as fully as possible. He created a very large scrapbook in which he documented his life every 15 minutes from 1915 to 1983. The scrapbook contains copies of all correspondence, bills, notes, sketches, and clippings from newspapers. The total collection is estimated to be 270 feet (80 m) worth of paper. This is said to be the most documented human life in history.
If somebody kept a very accurate record of a human being, going through the era from the Gay’90’s, from a very different kind of world through the turn of the century — as far into the twentieth century as you might live. I decided to make myself a good case history of such a human being and it meant that I could not be judge of what was valid to put in or not. I must put everything in, so I started a very rigorous record
