Artist-Scientist:
“Only the free-wheeling artist-explorer, nonacademic, scientist-philosopher, mechanic, economist-poet who has never waited for patron-starting and accrediting of his coordinate capabilities holds the prime initiative today. If man is to continue as a successful pattern-complex function in universal evolution, it will be because the next decades will have witnessed the artist-scientist’s spontaneous seizure of the prime design responsibility and his successful conversion of the total capability of tool-augmented man from killingry to advanced livingry-- adequate for all humanity.”
- RBF quoted in Times Literary Supplement review of 19 Mar’70 from PHILOS DESIGN, p. 249, May’60
