As if something out of a Philip K. Dick novel, this magazine (and others of its ilk) promised all sorts of inventions that never moved past the patent stage and into the general public's actual life; rather, these promises of high-tech utopia merely lulled the populace into getting through another drab day as slaves of the Powers that Be, with that elusive carrot of a better tomorrow always just around the corner. From Illustrated World, 1922.

sense of immediacy. We follow the founder of the Theater of
Spontaneity, Jacob Moreno, who proposed stringing together "now and then
flashes" to unfetter illusion and let imagination run free. The images
we have collected for this series came at a tremendous price, which we explained previously.] |
