Better Living Through Circuitry is a 1999 documentary directed by Jon Reiss[1] about the electronic dance music cultural scene of the 1990s.

The film presented aspects of rave culture such as: empowerment through advances in musical electronics technology, the DIY (do-it-yourself) ethic, and the flowering of a new spirituality embracing transcendence through sound and rhythm.

Better Living Through Circuitry equally emphasizes graphic designers, promoters, fans and other essential components of the scene, such as Mike Szabo, whose flyers[3][4] for "N.A.S.A."

(Nocturnal Audio + Sensory Awakening) events at Club Shelter, are part of the permanent collection[5] of the Smithsonian Museum and the Pure Children/Earth Program Collective[6][7] who worked and lived in a New York City loft space from which they created graphics, promoted raves and managed their own record label.

[2] In keeping with the theme of "empowerment through technology" Better Living Through Circuitry utilized some of what was considered, at the time of production, the latest digital film-making equipment.
