Films of Charles & Ray Eames (Volume 1)

Synopsis
Compilation of Eames’s films, with POWERS OF TEN (1978) and the original version of POWERS OF TEN (1968, 8 min), also known as A ROUGH SKETCH FOR A PROPOSED FILM DEALING WITH THE POWERS OF TEN AND THE RELATIVE SIZE OF THINGS IN THE UNIVERSE, which presents a linear view of our universe from the human scale to the sea of galaxies, then directly down to the nucleus of a carbon atom. With an image, a narration and a dashboard, it gives a clue to the relative size of things and what it means to add another zero to any number.
