200 years old vampire cries about being bad at his job…(it’s a regular occurrence)
Hihi this was so fun to draw ! I just really like imagining them hanging out I guess haha 🧡💚
Anyways,the reason why we no longer have an agreed upon aesthetic of what the future should look like isn't because of apocalypticism; it's because modernism--which during the nineteenth and twentiety centuries, seemed utterly inexorable, like a train going in only one direction, foreclosing all other possibilities--is basically dead. Like, if you look at the stereotypical "future" in 20th century sci-fi, it was basically just the same thing that they were doing at the time, only Moreso. *Taller* skyscrapers! Personal *aircraft* instead of personal automobiles! Rockets to the moon, just like getting on a jumbo jet to Amsterdam! And anyway, we've reached the end of that--we're past even the Cyberpunk version of "what the future should look like"--and because there's no obvious "right" answer, no one can agree on what it should be.
Anyways, for my money,the future needs to look like a garden.
