Prior to leaving Hampshire College in 1980, Tom was working on a 16mm film inspired by Jose Arguelles' book, The Transformative Vision: Reflections on the Nature and History of Human Expression. Shot in sync and MOS, the footage reflects Tom's interest in perception, human consciousness, and signaled his evolving interest in fusing non-fiction, experimental and dramatic genres. All the original materials for this unfinished film were stored at the LA home of Ken Levin, another Hampshire College alum who along with several other students, worked with Tom on this project, which he called the Architecture of Mountains.

Mientras estaba en Hampshire, Joslin trabajó en una película inspirada en el libro de José Argüelles, The Transformative Vision: Reflexiones sobre la naturaleza y la historia de la expresión humana. Todos los materiales originales, que Joslin llamó Architecture Of Mountains, acabaron en manos de uno de sus antiguos alumnos de Hampshire, Ken Levin.
