Teleologic Telecast from Spaceship Earth: On Board with Buckminster Fuller(1970)

Teleologic Telecast from Spaceship Earth: On Board with Buckminster Fuller is a 1970 experimental film that remixes a Buckminster Fuller lecture delivered at UNSW. Architect and pioneering filmmaker Mick Glasheen combines Fuller's ideas on science, metaphysics, and the universe with radical moving-image techniques, layering image, voice, and sound into a singular artistic statement. The work reflects Glasheen's engagement with media theory, transforming a recorded lecture into something far more ambitious—a multimedia exploration that challenges how we experience ideas through film. Fuller's visionary thinking about systems and design becomes inseparable from the experimental form itself, making the medium and message one unified whole.
