In 1953, a Telephone-Company Executive Predicts the Rise of Modern Smartphones and Video Calls

We live in the age of the smartphone, which took more than a few of us by surprise. But in all human history, not a single piece of technology has actually come out of nowhere.

PEGGY AND FRED IN KANSAS
1987
📺: https://www.ubu.com/film/thornton_kansas.html

Leslie Thornton’s early installment in the PEGGY AND FRED IN HELL cycle incorporates the filmmaker’s familial connection to the Manhattan Project by juxtaposing nightmarish imagery against the eternal innocence of children at play in an atomic bunker of pop culture detritus. Mixed media mixed with live action and manipulated sounds. For those raised by TV.
