2020-01-14.log:[08:53:13] <dmd> i really love the star wars aesthetic, how *old* everything looks. most scifi is either "brand gleaming new" or "dirty cyberpunk, broken down, but clearly spacefaring culture is only at most a couple hundred years old" | |
2020-01-14.log:[08:53:27] <dmd> where star wars is like "we have been here 10,000 years" | |
2020-08-03.log:[13:06:44] <dmd> https://www.roland.com/global/products/aerophone_go/ is this star wars Jizz Music | |
2020-11-13.log:[14:10:09] <dmd> one of the things I like about the Star Wars aesthetic and design language is that it presents the technology as being so old as to be always uncommented on, in the same way that we don't, today, think "high tech" when we see a heavy plow, or a bridle joint, or an arch. or, say, metal. the SW universe has had spaceflight for longer than humanity has had metal, so it's not "sci fi", it's just part of the background. |
