  Frustrating that these aren't labelled! What's this NASA-ish one from? https://64.media.tumblr.com/75c79a0906e422a7072b9148b52d9501...I didn't spot any of the weirdpunk machinery from Wings of Honneamise:https://www.inetres.com/gp/anime/woh/woh07.jpghttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DaYuAvpp7S6/Or Golden Boy's computer made out of paper: https://youtu.be/A1R1Du2PsZ4?t=610Or its Japanese-phonetically-respelled SunOS rc script: https://youtu.be/A1R1Du2PsZ4?t=1196Or any of the computer bits in that episoder really. By the way don't watch Golden Boy if there are any people who are not, uh, extremely cultured around.

  Lots of classics here, but was also hoping to see the ZERO System from Gundam Wing (1995):https://gundam.fandom.com/wiki/ZERO_System?file=W_ZERO_Syste...Later in life I would think of it as being inspired by the UK's SAGE defense system, even though it probably wasn't. You can't exactly see from the image, but the screen is a glass dome:https://www.computerhistory.org/revolution/real-time-computi...

  Was hoping for more Serial Experiments Lain. There are references in it to the Apple OS codename Copeland or Rhapsody-- I don't remember which.

  These are so sick. As a 34 year old whose first computers were already Windows 98, it's so weird to imagine a past where this is what the future of computing looked like, as opposed to what we actually got.

  I love little collections like this. Reminds me of this post on Lego interface panels: https://interactionmagic.com/UX-LEGO-Interfaces

  Good old Metal Skin Panic Madox 01. What NOT to do when a fully equipped battle exoskeleton falls off the back of a truck and into the junkyard you work at...The opening is worth a watch if you have a minute 12. Airwolf flashing blueprint feel, although soundtrack wasn't as good. Lotta weird little easter eggs if you can pause while the text is shown.

  I'm partial to anything that looks like a nuclear control room (saw one in this list). It's like a while different generation of UX but derived from totally different parts, goals, users, and of course a lot of the people who designed these had been military. Not a lot of room for fluff, lots of room for clarity.Love to see the dizzying array of ways people imagined data can be shown. Everything these days feels so flat. Appreciate the share.

  What I'm finding interesting here is that the "user interface" is either the screen (what I/we normally expect of the term 'user interface') or the input/interaction interface or both.Cockpit images are interesting in an input context because there are buttons and switches surrounding the user.

  One GIF is a clip from the Hollywood movie WarGames (1983).Not that there isn't animation in it, but... the animation was projected onto a large screen and then that screen with other things around it was filmed.

  I am now 80% sure this is a submarine ad for a graphics tablet or HN is letting shit get wild and bot controlled.

  It is maybe 60 pictures, and a decent chunk of them have absolutely no focus on UI.
