A LOOK AT '80s LASER GRIDS -- AN ANTICIPATION OF THE FUTURE THAT NEVER WAS.
PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on asssorted, unnamed '80s decade cyber grid art pieces, and a so-called "ubiquitous symbol of 1980s graphic design." Various artists.
MINI-OVERVIEW: "The 80s grid is a truly ubiquitous element, a powerful visual cliche symbol of the whole decade. Looking at retro 80s graphics, advertisements, videogames and film, it is striking how the laser grid is found over and over again.
A central vanishing point, dark background, a grid of thin lines in primary colours; optionally, the sun setting behind mountains. The look of the laser grid follows a precise set of rules and principles while appearing in many variations. It creates a futuristic atmosphere, a space of possibility for the technological future people imagined forty years ago.
The 80s was a time of political tension and Cold War, paired with mass consumption and optimism for technology and a computer-driven society. This is what the 80s light grid incorporates, creating a futuristic space of possibility, and describing a future that never was."

Kevin: Look, Tron, I know you’re mad at me, but you can’t just shut me out.
Tron: Access blocked. Check connection settings and retry.
Kevin: Come on, man. We can talk about this.
#can’t decide if this is funnier with Kevin on the computer#or they’re literally having an in-person conversation on the Grid#firewall bf giving him the silent treatment#tron#tronblr#kevin flynn

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - The Grid
#kingdom hearts dream drop distance#khddd#the grid#scenery#my gif#the general aesthetic of this world makes most areas feel very samey#i was worried that i wouldn't be able to make this set look varied enough but i think it turned out alright#but i'm glad sora and riku were able to wear unique outfits in this world and that they brought back the lightcycle race#replaying this game made me realize that sora and quorra's friendship is pretty adorable haha#she took one look at that kid and was like our names rhyme we're best friends now let's team up and ditch the other characters#guess i'm a fan of sora befriending computer people because the whole thing with tron/rinzler is really interesting to me#imagine my surprise when i played this game for the first time and saw that sora got through to tron but couldn't save him#and that we don't return back to this world to resolve it#he reached for his hand...

I’m blogging from one of these btw
Absolute cutting edge Star League tech, this thing, wireless connectivity, 500-ish megs of bubble memory, high-def (360p!) display, I can beat people to death with it in a pinch, and I’ve got a little slot in my Marauder for it, so who needs a command console?
#battletech#mechwarrior#battletech oc#battletech rp#mechwarrior oc#mechwarrior rp#OOC this is a picture of the grid compass which was in fact the big name in rugged portable computing in the 80s#so it probably isn’t far from what you’d find mounted in a commander’s cockpit if they don’t have a CC cockpit#I did inflate the specs a bit to fit the setting

Entered the United States using facial recognition alone, even though I don't have Global Entry. 😶 CBP Officer welcomed me by name and never looked at my passport.
#remember those guys in those movies#who had their computers in a chain link cage#and were 'off the grid'#they had the right idea maybe?

I rewatched Tron Legacy and for some reason I remembered the portal as opening and closing on its own once a cycle, but apparently that’s not what happens?
The movie implies that it opens when a User comes in, closes after 8 ‘hours’, then NEVER opens again? It just…closes forever until he returns from outside?
And Kevin’s plan in that event seems to have been to page Alan and be like “yeah so I borrowed your wife’s portal into the digital world and made my own universe, and I got too into building a new city with the program homies so I was late getting out and the portal like closed on me and now I’m trapped in my computer forever unless someone logs in and releases me. Can you come pick me up”
Yeah that sounds like him
Tron in the flashback telling him “I don’t like when you cut it this close” gave me secondhand stress after realising it
#kevin flynn#the man ever#tron legacy#tron betrayal#tronblr#also who tf only stays for eight ingame hours? Unless he means eight real hours which should be longer#Imagining him going ‘damn I want to stay longer but my own doofus rules prevent it’#*takes a ship across literally the entire Grid just to log out and back in again*#‘why did I set it up this way what is wrong with me. Oh well too late to change it now’#how do you explain that over a pager#how good is a pager can you text someone with it#*googles* ok some of them you can#Kevin: ALAN HELP STUCK IN COMPUTER#Alan: what does this mean is this a typo#Kevin: REPEAT AM STUCK IN COMPUTER. PUT A COIN IN THE TRON MACHINE AND LOG IN#Alan: *siiiiggghhh*#Alan: Ok I’ll play along with whatever this is. But only because you said this is for emergencies.#Alan: How do you get stuck IN a computer anyway? You better not be doing what I think you’re doing

Jack Skellington was clowned on by the narrative for trying to make the heartless do a dance choregraphy. He should get a free dream eater in the waking world pass as an apology.
#kingdom hearts#jack skellington#buddy it's the queue you gotta let me go#'but they're way too pastels for halloween town' honey these fellas clearly know how to adapt like emblem heartless *points at the computer#themed DE in the grid*#pili rambles
