- bze12 6y agoseconded. Objectified is a great doc
- FlorianRappl 6y agoDefinitely. Both are great!
- glenngillen 6y agoAdd Urbanized to that list too, it’s a really great look at how cities and their spaces are designed. He also recently produced Rams which I’ve not yet had a chance to see but I hope is on par with his previous work. And if you enjoy these films you’ll also likely appreciate the Abstract series which originally aired on Netflix.
- jamesvandyne 6y agoRams is great. Bought it on Vimeo shortly after it came out. You won’t regret it. When Rams speaks about design, it always makes me reflect on modern software and how we’ve regressed so much. Though I think’s mostly as a single widget does 20 different things, which isn’t a great idea in the first place.
- ghaff 6y ago>Though I think’s mostly as a single widget does 20 different things, which isn’t a great idea in the first place. You mean like a smartphone? :-) It's a tradeoff. For example, even a well-equipped kitchen generally doesn't have every sort of one-off small appliance or implement. On the one hand, if you do make a lot of rice, say, a rice cooker makes a lot of sense. If you make rice a few times a year? Probably makes more sense just to make it on the stovetop.
- webmaven 6y agoA bunch of Netflix documentaries are available on YouTube. Search for 'netflix feature' , 'netflix episode', or 'netflix full' to find most of them.
- FlorianRappl 6y agoThanks for sharing. Did not know about Urbanized - but looks fantastic!
