Timewarp Design

In an earlier post, we showcased a book that extols modern design created with age-old technology. Now, from our West Coast correspondent, James, comes word of the Alt1977 project. Alex Varanese has done the opposite: he celebrates today's technology through the lens of yesterday's design. His ads, two of which appear above, tout the power of recent technology to the technophiles of the late 1970s. More spectacular images here.

  2. Where are the effusive compliments from Anonymous about the inspiring discoveries made by the West Coast correspondent? Isn't he admired? Doesn't he also share is amazing vision with the world? No thank you's? No keep it up's? I think I can sum it up best with a quote from the1995 MTV Music Awards? “The East Coast ain’t got no love for Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg and Death Row?!”

  3. Thank you for dropping the first east coast/west coast beef reference on this blog. It's been far too long to have not invoked Dre and co.

    Much love to the west coast correspondent!!!! Holla!!
