If we're honest we've never understood TED ... and probably never will.
Which is cool.
And regradless of, and in how far, we comprehend why TED exists, they do offer some wonderful short films and lectures... and the newly released 2007 talk by Eames Demetrios, grandson of Charles and Ray Eames, is no exception.
Occasionaly it wanders into the realms of "whatever!", but on the whole is a lovely little introduction to Charles and Ray Eames and for all their philosophy and approach to design.
