Exploratorium | 10/10/10 – An Auspicious Day to Celebrate the Powers of Ten October 10, 2010

“Take your pleasure seriously,” is a famous statement of American designer Charles Eames and the Exploratorium in San Francisco intends to do just that. On October 10, 2010, (10/10/10), an auspiciously numbered day, the Exploratorium celebrates the Eames’ ideas and specifically their famous film, Powers of Ten. The day will include activities, demonstrations, conversations, and of course, films, exploring the relative scale of things, and the philosophy and ideas of Charles and Ray Eames. The Eames were arguably the most important and egalitarian American designers of the 20th century and contributed to the fields of education, architecture, design, manufacturing, cinema and photography. This event is included in the price of admission to the museum.
