- pizzicato 6y agoCyberdecks[0] come to mind. There seems to be quite an active modding scene; I remember seeing a few Pi-based ones recently. [0] https://www.cyberdeck.cafe/ https://www.cyberdeck.cafe/

And we’re starting to see 70s/80s retrofuturism, mostly I’d say the word associated with that is vaporwave. More art than actual tech, and most of the tech is one-off hand-built stuff.
- Swizec 6y agoWould cyberpunk count as 90s retrofuturism? Or have we decided it hits too close to home for present times?
- irscott 6y agoNah cyberpunk is it's own thing and the aesthetic way predates the 90s.

- stryan 6y agoVaporwave, despite using a lot of 80s samples, is generally more associated with the 90s. Vaporwave is all about the simultaneous apex and decline of mall culture, consumer excess in optimism of the post-Cold War, and early WWW aesthetic. 70s/80s would be Cassette Futurism and Sythwave.
