Where Can I Find a Vintage LapTron 64?

Digital artist Alex Varanese shows us artifacts from a past that never existed but that we wish had. Welcome to ALT/1977, where today's technology is trapped thrives in a 1970's aesthetic.

No less provocative is Varanese's design sensibility: "I've learned that there is no greater design element than the anachronism. I've learned that the strongest contrast isn't spatial or tonal but historical. I've learned that there's retro, and then there's time travel."
