In developing Thermodynamic Entropy S, I have begun to realize that the set date for literary and filmic projections concerning "the future" has long passed. I have also begun to worry that the collective aesthetic for "the future" has been only moderately updated since the 1970's. Seemingly, modern technology and its representation presents an atavistic ideal that was never attained, and thus creates an unnatural disconnect between our expectations and unmediated sociological progress.
