fault is mega corp's and bilionaires who block the future and only drip water parts of it to the public

A master of Practical Futurism. Thanks, Space Chasm, for the exhibition.

Well done. Syd Mead was a genius, and he also designed the Leonov for 2010. His visions are both exquisite and haunting

China invests time and money in making its tourist cities look perfect. The homeless are removed from sight, protesting is banned, and the government invests in keeping the facade polished. Lots of shiny new skyscrapers to maintain as their economy takes a downturn.... In rural China the old folks still scavenge about, wearing their old Mao pajamas, which is only futuristic if you're into Mad Max.

Hold on... are you by any chance also a CZcamsr focused on the works of architect John Lautner? I see some overlap in topic...

A joke? that's harsh.

It could have been if corporations like Lockheed Skunks and Boeing and many others released unacknowledged technology to the public. Dr Steven Greer managed to go to Washington and even David Grusch, for serious hearings (with witness protection and everything). History would have been completely different.

This is the future we were promised and worked for in personal lives and careers. It was stolen from us. The only way forward is back to the future.

I believe that cars have no big future in big cities. Bicycles and a very good public transport network make a city more liveable. Look at some car dependable US cities like L.A. or Houston, it's a traffic mess. You always need more and more lanes to keep up. Also in New York (or New Amsterdam) there are too many cars. While (Old) Amsterdam is more and more a future city where you really don't need a car to get around. It is easier by bicycle and public transport system. It's a city made for people, not cars. ;-)

Great video as always! I think one that should of made the list of honourable mentions is the upcoming Caddilac Celestiq, i mean it looks straight outta cyberpunk 2077!

This is great, thanks.

I would think the Audi A2 and the first Series Audi TT look more futuristic than most of these and they are 25 years old now.

The futuristic car that makes my mouth salivate most is the Giugaro Italdesign Aspid car from 1988. ❤

En Argentina mientras esté el peronismo no avanzaremos jamás,al contrario,retrocederemos

I love his vision.

A great look at his art depicting mankind in the future years going to the Moon, Mars and beyond can be found in “Our World In Space” with text by Isaac Asimov. I believe it was published in 1974 and is a great look at us revisiting the Moon in the eighties, and Mars in the 90s and more. One of the pix in this video is actually from that book depicting an underground Moon city. Look for the big lights in a ceiling.

We cant't trust in the production cars today sometimes you are driving your car on the road and suddenly your car doens't work because of bad functuion engine, image if you are flying with your car in the sky and if you detect a problem like this, you will fall in the sky.

I’m happy I got to sit in the futura but at that time it was the 1960s batmobile

Very cool artwork 🙂

I always loved the futurist art movement, especially of the 19t0s and 60s with people like McCall, Berkey and Chesley Bonestelle. The latter did the planetary and matte paintings for the 1950s film- " The War of the Worlds".

I love that he did the art work for Epcot. So he painted paintings for spaceship earth. Horizons concept work also did murals for the air and space museum in D c

9:11 and 9:25 amazing technique and compositions. Wow impressive artist really

2:00 this is so true. I really miss a positive outlook to the future for humanity, similar like Star Trek was once (not this depressing nihilistic nonsense they make nowadays).

Thank you for starting this channel. I'm still waiting for that wheel-shaped space station (instead of the things we got, which just look like complicated floating garbage disposals), and those plump, finned rockets that flew to other solar systems in mere weeks. Your videos are a wistful pleasure.

Maybe the weapons at the concert hall were stun only, in case of a riot.

This reminds me of the Terran Trade Authority. TTA

5:17 Confetti cannons?

The image of Mr. McCall painting the mural at 9:08 depicts his work for what would become part of the Horizons pavilion at E.P.C.O.T. in Florida. The mural is titled "The Prologue and The Promise". He and his wife completed the project in California in 1983, and it was carefully transported to Florida. When the Horizons pavilion was dismantled to make way for the Mars pavilion, the mural made its way back to California, and was--at least for a time--on display at the Disney Imagineering offices in Glendale, CA. I do not know where it is at the moment, but it was--and remains--a spectacular work which should be put on public display.

We have flat panel TVs and smart phones, high-speed rail and electric cars, AI and robots, but we will not truly have arrived in the future until we get this anti-gravity thing figured out.

I like all his round and spherical motifs. Makes things look a bit alien.

Great video but I personally wouldn't be assuming everything will be "anti-gravity."

I've always been interested in science fiction. As a kid I was given a books titled "The Art of Star Wars." From the original trilogy. The artwork by Ralph McQuarrie. It completely blew me away. Most of the time his art is better than what showed up on film. His locations, character designs, ship designs, etc. were all so amazing. I found myself being slightly disappointed in certain aspects of films. Because they didn't live up to the concept art. So thanks for putting this channel together. It's really awesome to see the future that could have been...

7:10 - In my head canon they have a "History of Space Flight" time-cycle, month or how it may be called and this rocket is part of a planet-wide historical reenactment event with which they remember how everything started. and this liquid fuel propelled rocket was built by a 7th grader school class.

As mentioned, the positive attitude to the future and the possibilities of mankind, living together as one in peace, harmony and progress, is the essence of those pictures - something we lost somehow on the way.

Bioshock Infinite ahead of their time.

...so is it just me or is Retro Futurism still more Futuristic than Modern Futurism? Sort of like, "meh, they were naive back then, we know our limitations now." I mean, somehow, we knew that we weren't looking even only a century ahead, but far further...

I, too, was a kid growing up with all these visions of the future, fascinated with all our cities and homes being in the clouds [ie. Jetsons]. It is only now that I realize what a nightmare this would be, being a person who suffers from fear of heights. I'm afraid I would have been stuck standing on the ground looking up to see the world go by! LOL

Star trek soon

Robert sure liked flags

5:47 It's a visual metaphor of a Kamala Harris presidency.

Im a little concerned about this being private. The money funnelled into the space race all went back to Americans, for the goals of Americans. The money for the ISS was raised internationally, and went towards international cooperation (and those nations people) A private company exists to extract research wealth. This will be a research landlord, and even if ultimately successful, will just create another Musk. No thanks

Fantastic !!! I wait this... FROM LOOOOOONG TIME.

If you took a 35mm film from the 1960s and shot it through a polarizer filter, it’d yield photographic images similar to the artistic effect of his works; glass without reflection and transparent even from long distances, a sky whose color seems to be darkened but simultaneously high contrast and secondary colors that become closer to their primary hue.

Every discovery 1st ro be decided if it can be used for war and global domination or to control the masses. Elon musk is the only inventer wanting to further mankind as a whole for the good.

we got gyped, shoulda had sexbots by now

I agree about how technology progresses.

Love Your Videos & The positive vibes from your voice over.

The station renderings look impressive. But from a practical perspective, those windows are both structurally dubious and somewhat pointless at even 200M, as the light outside is rather dim.

Thanks a lot for this great video.
