Sneak Peek

by eames on January 13, 2012

We offered a sneak peek at the new Eames Elephant film, Elephant Safaris–into the wilds last night at the screening at the A+D Museum last night. It looks like the release date is shifting a bit (a few tweaks on the titles), but I will drop a shot or two on the website before the launch. Here are some of the baby elephants taking in the beauty of the zebras:

New Eames Elephants Film

by eames on January 9, 2012

We’ll be dropping the new Eames Elephants’ film online next week, but there will be a sneak peek at the A+ D Museum on Wilshire in LA tomorrow night after a screening of some of Charles and Ray Eames films.

There is an admission fee (the museum is an excellent cause) and contact the museum if you want to reserve tickets (I am pretty sure you can).

Here is the A + D website

Hope to see you there.

Up at the Eames Foundation we re-created the classic image of the Eames Living Room as it was the day they moved in in 1949.

You can visit exterior the 29, 30, 31 of December and the 3rd through 6th of January. As always, you must make an appointment and have it confirmed (info AT eamesfoundation.org)

Meanwhile, over at the Kcymaerxthaere site, we finally have GPS coordinates for just about all the Kcymaerxthaere Historical Markers. Here is one in linear Berlin.

10 Cool Eames treats

by eames on December 20, 2011

Over the years, I have made quite a few films related to Charles and Ray Eames’ work and ideas. So I decided to collect them into a DVD called Eames by Demetrios.

Anyway, I posted 10 of those clips on the Eames Office website. Check ‘em out if you can! (Lemme know your thoughts in comments)

An Ice Way to Get Ready for the PBS airing

by eames on December 19, 2011

Needless to say, when the Eames Foundation was approached about working with Ice Cube and the Getty, it seemed like a great fit–and it was. The conversation about the connection of ideas was fantastic. Cube was plugged into the IDEAS from the get-go.

So enjoy the showing of the new documentary tomorrow on American Masters, but you might get some things from this they didn’t have time to get to in the movie. The strength of the feature documentary is that it tells a strong thread of the story, but this brief video gets at some important ideas too. Taken together, they give one a sense of the way that Charles and Ray’s work will sustain many different and rewarding explorations over the next decades.
