First heard about Smashing Telly over at Sour Grapes, where SG offered up a link to Jean-Luc Godard’s Alphaville.
Man, what a resource Smashing Telly is.
Everything from Jean-Luc Godard to this forty-one minute interview with Buckminster Fuller (“Everything I Know”) to over an hour with George Carlin to Charles and Ray Eames’ Powers of Ten to interviews with Philip Glass and Godfrey Reggio for The Making of Koyaanisqatsi.
David Galbraith explains: Smashing Telly is a hand edited collection of the best free, instantly available TV on the web. Not 30 second clips of a dog on a skateboard, or the millionth person to mime the Numa song, but full length programs. Smashing Telly, not Gimmick Telly.
Many of the items that I’ll be putting up on a regular basis are documentaries, since that’s what tends to be out there at the moment.
