‘Kay, full disclosure: we haven’t been exactly forthright with that thar descriptor up yonder.

These experimental rockers and critics’ darlings are actually working with Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Sam Green for The Love Song of R. Buckminster Fuller, a “live documentary” about the famed futurists’ hope for a design-side social revolution.

If the “rockitude” of this event somehow got lost in all that jargon, just know that the pretty pictures are gonna move next to the word sounds and the music noises, and that progressive ephemeralization is super fun.
