The aesthetics from the 2000s were gaudy, sharp, and neon. Everyone was all in on the future. Things became eXtreme, the NBA introduced a basketball they quickly scrapped, the 2001 Superbowl had a replay that stopped and flipped the field around and provided nothing of value. None of it worked. But because this man made construct clicked to 2000 things had to become futuristic. The world was an uglier place.
People wanted a world that wasn’t ready yet. Now in 2018 the seeds of technology are here that will make the future unrecognizable from today.
