there is a wonderful documentary that came out recently about the eames and their work. I think it is called the architect and the painter. Oh to be alive and living and working in Venice, CA in the early 1960's. Their studio seemed incredibly fertile, generative, and joyous at its peak. Their short films and time lapse things are hilarious and beautiful.
For any of you who don't know, NYSCI owns the original and only complete version of Mathematica, which we lovingly keep in working order. Come and visit it.
