Enjoyed the short film. Hmm, how about another world's fair, this time on the other coast in 3 years. Yes, the 2028 Olympics in LA LA land. What exhibits would capture the minds of the world as they gaze into a glorious future?
Breaking apart curbs to create rocks to chunk, tear gas toss in a marijuana field, or just dodging hordes of homeless to reach the next exhibit. Great opportunities for souvenirs.
I think in a lot of ways we do live in the future envisioned there. Ultimately there's a huge gulf between how it's envisioned by a small team putting together a fair to show what the best bits can be and how it's actually built by humanity over time.
Hell, yeah. Nice work. I look forward to more of these...
I detect a conspiracy here. I've never heard of a Trylon or Perisphere before. And now I discover there's a Trylon Cinema in south Minneapolis.

And they just so happen to have a blog called... Perisphere.

I enjoyed that short segment. You have a way with words. What else is in the closet?
Skeletons.

Where ya been buddy? My tl is bereft of forgotten architecture and lost cultural icons.
Nice. Well done.
Thanks for taking me down this rabbit hole.
I enjoyed this very much. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to more of these in the future. Congrats on your retirement.
Yep. I am here for these... Sadly, he will have more time to create all kinds of cool stuff like this... So, Yay us! I guess.
I like it! This was a cool subject to begin with so... keep on keepin' on.
This is worth it.

There was a real effort to get the expo to the US recently but it didn’t happen.
Dear heavens, I love this stuff!
