Sci-Fi Dystopias

1984, Brazil, Farenheit 451, etc. Why do these count as scifi?

Thanks to Chris Noessel for pointing in the Facebook group the way the “badly designed” user interfaces are really incredibly well-designed, if the point is absurdism. :)

Complexity

In business, objects, life, gadgets, systems. Ducts! Creepin’.

Security Theater

Statistics, fear of skin cancer vs shark attack. Viscerality.

Euphemistic Language

Covering up reality. Making uncomfortable behaviour easier to swallow. Hiding reality.

Dreams and Reality

Cracking up. Dreams. Endings.
