An Alternate 1977 We Can All Get Behind
What would you do if you could travel back in time? Assassinate Marilyn Monroe? Go on a date with Hitler? Obviously. But here's what I'd do after that: grab all the modern technology I could find, take it to the late 70's, superficially redesign it all to blend in, start a consumer electronics company to unleash it upon the world, then sit back as I rake in billions, trillions, or even millions of dollars.That's the main idea behind ALT/1977, a graphic design project taking modern technology such as laptops, cellphones, portable video games and MP3 players, pushing them back 33 years, and giving them the unique look and feel of electronics of the time period.
Artist Alex Varanese really out did himself here, and I’m not going to lie, I’d buy a “Pocket HiFi” now.
