Ecological Design - Inventing the Future DVD

This educational film illuminates the emergence of ecological design in the 20th century. Beginning with the work of Buckminster Fuller from the 1920s through the 1960s, continuing through the counter-culture and ending on the doorstep of the 21st century, this video follows the evolution of ecological design from the early visions of a few independent thinkers to the powerful movement it has become today. Winner of several awards, the film includes the interdisciplinary perspectives of many noted designers and thinkers such as Jay Baldwin, Mary Catherine Bateson, John Todd, Stewart Brand, Amory Lovins, Paolo Soleri, and many others. A powerful educational tool, Ecological Design provides a practical basis for learning about the environment and about our capability to design a desirable and sustainable future. Running Time: 64 minutes. DVD.
