One person with this last name remarked of Bell Labs, all you could get from them was "pictures of a a  man with a beard and somebody says You will invent the telephone or something." People with this last name  created a short film with a scene where an animated man walk along a beach and takes sea shells into his  "active memory" accompanied by the sound of a cash register ringing. One person with this last name  invented a Do-Nothing Machine, which was an impressive array of colored, spinning solar powered  doohickeys. IBM commissioned the aforementioned film The Information Machine by people with this last  name and that film is a primer about what computers are and how they benefit society. Those same people  with this last name wrote A Computer Perspective: Background to the Computer Age and created the  "Mathematica: A World of Numbers and Beyond" exhibit, also for IBM. People with this last name created  the LaChaise chair and the 1956 Lounge Chair and Ottoman. A film by those people uses the distance a race car and  supersonic jet can travel in 10 seconds to illustrate the size of squares overlayed on top of Chicago. Those squares  get smaller and the camera zooms out to show a good chunk of the universe. For 10 points, name this husband and  wife team that created Powers of Ten.
