Released a year ago for the Pacific Standard Time Art Festival, I love this celebration of Charles and Ray Eames from a seemingly unlikely fan - Ice Cube. The video is beautifully shot and Ice Cube's commentary flows with a sharp, easy cadence far removed from his early days with N.W.A.  A couple of lines from his take on the Case Study House #8.

"It's not about the pieces, it's how the pieces work together... taking something that already exists and making it something special... kind of like sampling." "This is going green 1949-style bitch. Believe that."
