It might be a while

Exotic Material is a UK-based publisher, founded in 2025 to help resurrect Alice Coltrane's Eternity's Pillar television programme.

We are working on a number of new projects but none are currently near completion.

Also, here is a link for purchase in the U.S.

ETERNITY’S PILLAR by Alice Coltrane

I'm not familiar with this but the first few episodes are currently streaming on Criterion Channel

The four episodes on the Criterion Channel were thought to be the only surviving episodes until last year. They are numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4 but are actually 5, 17, 22, and 23 according to the master tape boxes (and thus the new Blu-ray).

1 = 5
2 = 23
3 = 22
4 = 17
