This addition featuring supremely optimistic visions of the future...from er... the past....
Firstly, a less famous Horten flying machine than the German Brothers (see here for my favourite of theirs), but still fantastic, this link courtesy of Melvyn Friend's recommendations.
One for the modellers... a period documentary on the making of the Gerry Anderson futuristic classics Thunderbirds and Stingray here!
A fantastically diverse range of all things retro at Retrothing.com
70s scientists prepare an optimistic vision of the future of home computing lol... I wonder if it runs on Vista?
You know what's missing from easyjet? An airliner with deck games, an orchestra, a gym and solarium...
A nice little summary of some of the key areas of retro-futurism at Retro Future
And for our second documentary - a walk round of the 1965 New York Fair... Worth watching just for the stretched tandem with.... erm.... more guys than I can count riding it!
And lastly but not least..ly... another nice round up of future/past stuff at Pale Of Future!
Right, I'm off to feast on my food tablets before indulging on a bit of shuffleboard in my solarium...
Til next time!
