The Logic of Waste (Audio)

Jan 01, 1990
Created by Frances Dyson
How does Japan dispose of the tremendous amount of waste its gift wrapping tradition creates? What proposals have been developed in the Soviet Union to eliminate nuclear missiles? And what methods seem to help Anglo-Saxon middle-class Canberra, Australia deal with the uncomfortable culture of its Hispanic immigrants? These questions are pursued in this audio-art documentary with remarkable subtlety and intelligence. Commissioned by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
