CHARLES SCHRIDDE MOTOROLA TV REVISITED 1961-1963

Here are some images by Charles Schridde for a Motorola advertising campaign in the 60's.  I fell in love with the images as soon as I saw them - so retro!  This embodies all things awesome about the old days.  When technology was actually supposed to lessen our work load and hence give us more time to relax.

Pffft.  That ol' chestnut.

If only they knew how much technology would interfere with our daily life.  Now for me to go surgically remove the iPod from my hands/ears and replace it with my smartphone so I can send a tweet, stalk on Facebook, and complain about the evils of technology on my blog.

But no.  What I'm really going to do right now in this glorious weather is go outside with the other half, dig around in my organic vege patch and soak up some Vitamin D.  Get outside and get moving.  Just don't forget your phone.
