Screening of Tom Joslin’s Architecture of Mountains film

Mount Holyoke College Cleveland L2 3:00pm

Inspired by Jose Arguelles’ book, The Transformative Vision: Reflections on the Nature and History of Human Experience, these 1970’s, 16mm images, reflect Tom Joslin’s interest in perception, human consciousness, and signaled his evolving cinematic explorations fusing non-fiction, experimental and dramatic genres. All the original materials were donated to Hampshire College by Tom’s former student and collaborator, Ken Levin. The unfinished film was constructed by Hampshire College Professor, Abraham Ravett and Hampshire College alums, Ben Balcom and Sam Shapiro.
