It's Dieter's Birthday, Watch "Rams" Free!
It’s become a tradition that every year on Dieter Rams' birthday we stream my documentary “Rams” free to viewers worldwide. Please spread the word!
Tomorrow, May 20th, Dieter Rams turns 93 years old. And it’s become a tradition that every year on Dieter’s birthday we stream my documentary “Rams” free to viewers worldwide. You may have seen it already, but here’s a chance to revisit this film about one of the most influential designers on the planet, with an original soundtrack by Brian Eno. Spread the word to friends who might be interested! The film is free to stream today and tomorrow with subtitles in a dozen languages. Happy Birthday Dieter!

Get a Private Screening of “Eno”
I've been all over the world to show “Eno” over the past year, but we’re still getting a lot of requests to do private screenings for various companies, groups and conferences. I love sharing unique versions of the film and talking about the technology involved and its larger ramifications. But there are only so many places I can physically go!
So I've decided I'll be doing only three private screenings of the film this year, which can be booked now at ohyouprettythings.com. I'll come to your company, university or conference (or your living room) and create a unique version of the film, and afterwards we can have a conversation about creativity and technology. And I'll bring some posters and other swag for your people too.
Cheers,
Gary
