4 Kansas university museums, which includes Wichita State’s Ulrich Museum, have joined up to host a no cost digital storytelling and culinary event that includes artist, writer and filmmaker Eames Demetrios at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 11. Chef Steve Sofa, founder of Mr. Consume Correct, will make the cookies and crackers, using customized cookie-cutters in the condition of the language from the fictional globe Demetrios’ has developed in his stories.
Linda Duke, director of the Beach Museum at Kansas State University, described the function as a entertaining night time of “fantastic world-wide storytelling” with edible art. As a reward, contributors will get recipes for some savory and sweet treats in time for a Valentine’s Working day celebration.
Demetrios will explain to stories applying the figures and spots from the fictional alternative universe Kycmaerxthaere (pronounced ky-maer-icks-theer). Some followers abbreviate that to Kyc.
A lot like J.R. Tolkien’s fictional Center Earth was motivated by actual destinations, Kyc has connections to authentic-earth geography. As an artist and self-described geographer-at-significant, Demetrios has developed story markers and artwork installations that tie in with his stories. There are a lot more than 140 storytelling markers in 30 countries, representing worldwide connectedness. According to the web page devoted to Kyc (kcymearxtheare.com), the nearest marker to Wichita is at the foot of Rock Mary in Hinton Oklahoma.

Duke has known Demetrios for extra than 20 many years, primarily due to the fact of his family’s lineage to the layout planet. Demetrios is the grandson of legendary American designers Charles and Ray Eames and is the principal of Eames Office environment that oversees the Eames style and design legacy. Demetrios has offered lots of lectures and talks, including Ted Talks, about the Eames style legacy and Kycmaerxthaere. This previous Oct, the Ulrich hosted a digital talk by Demetrios.
For the duration of the pandemic, Demetrios and Couch have been performing what Duke phone calls “cookie parties” wherever Couch works by using the custom-made cutters that depict the Kyc language, which is based on shapes. Duke advised the Valentine’s Working day theme for the Feb. 11 party.
