Welcome to Cassette Futurism Lemmy and Mbin Community.

A place to share and discuss Cassette Futurism: media where the technology closely matches the computers and technology of the 70s and 80s.

Whether it's bright colors and geometric shapes, the tendency towards stark plainness, or the the lack of powerful computers and cell phones, Cassette Futurism includes: Cassettes, ROM chips, CRT displays, computers reminiscent of microcomputers like the Commodore 64, freestanding hi-fi systems, small LCD displays, and other analog technologies.

Fictional prop.

Searching for "Digital Compact Cassette" portable, I found the (very cool) Sony TCD-D10 (source with more images and specifications: Hifi Speaker Wiki). It wouldn't surprise me if it was part of the mood-board for this project, or even its main inspiration.
