RETRO

a gallery of retro images, held as links

▌ sets

8 sets

Rooms walled with consoles: MOCR, the White Flight Control Room and the Blue Room, photographed between Apollo and the shuttle era. Every frame links to the NASA image library.

The carrier that made software a thing you owned: 5.25 and 3.5 inch, install sets, driver disks and the labels people wrote on.

PET to Amiga, by way of Chuck Peddle and a pile of cartridges: the machines that put a keyboard in a home.

Glass tubes still glowing: a monitor, a television set, a cathode ray in a consulting room, a museum row of old sets.

Magnetic tape as the medium of everything: VHS sleeves, a cassette of an 8-bit game, chewed tape, a MiniDisc.

Handsets, rotary dials and the boxes that screamed at each other down a phone line.

Signage after dark, from the archives that photographed it before it went out.

Coin-op and cartridge hardware: consoles, joysticks and one very large winged bear.
