THX 1138 BEAUTIFUL BUT INACCURATE AS FUTURE LOOK TEMPLATE

This article produced a William Gibson great image suggestion

(A scene from one book: cardboard and duct tape shelters on the Golden Gate Bridge).

This feeling/image familiar from my high school lunch-time sulking in the hallway, ostentatiously alone, reading Neuromancer and the like.

We live in all ages at once- Iron and Bronze and Silicon(e).

There are no streamlined clean THX futures.

MORMONS LAUNCH CASTLE INTO SKY

Imagine if the reason the mormon temple seen here reminds me of the rocket ship castle from Robotech cartoon is that mormons secretly have really good, irony informed taste that takes in Slavic sci-fi, Eno and Cluster... They are a religion of good taste, train people in it. Syd Mead murals on acid-washed denim instead of the social realist/soft porn jacked muscle farmers murals they have now...This is an idea worth fleshing out, forgive the clumsy beginnings here.
