"On The Road with Robert Pirsig" is the second film in the authorized DVD series about Robert Pirsig's life and work. 

It is truly a first class piece of work, deserving of a wide audience, which I hope it receives. Pirsig comes across as a truly enlightened being --- insightful, yet humble, unassuming, down to earth. [He's kept] center focus, as is right. The side-bar comments of others, the scenery, and the judiciously chosen music (at least per my taste) all enhance that focus. Splendid!

"On The Road" uses professional quality footage and excerpts from Pirsig's own home movies (going back to the 1930s) though this time the focus is the writing of "Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" and the people and places of the original motorcycle road trip described therein.  To purchase a copy of this DVD for $25 (or the sterling equivalent), please press either of the buttons above depending on what format (NTSC or PAL) you require. As ever, postage & packing is free.  (Please note that NTSC is the broadcasting format for North America while PAL is the one for much of Europe).

  Arrive Without Travelling DVD

"Arrive Without Travelling" was the first ever DVD to feature Robert Pirsig on film.  Using professional quality footage and excerpts from Pirsig's own home movies, here you will find him in conversation with students of his work and in more informal moments filmed largely during his visit to Liverpool in 2005.  Note the following feedback from one happy viewer! 

 

Anthony,

I loved the DVD.... [it was] wonderful, creative, meaningful!!! All and more than I expected. I loved the special effects and musical score. Perfect! And Pirsig? Beautiful! Beautiful in both a real and imaginary sense. (I suppose that would be a static and Dynamic sense.) Thank you, for adding something very special to my life.
