In 1990, there was a train-wreck Wim Wenders movie that I loved and still love called "Until the End of the World". It was about a scientist (played by Max Von Sydow) who created a machine that could record someone's dreams or visual experiences directly from the brain and play them back even to a blind person. https://youtu.be/gilzgbdk300?t=442

Anyways, the images that were depicted in this work of fiction shot in 1990 about "the future" of 2000, had a very interesting look to them-- kind of distorted and dreamy like the images in the paper.

Are the images in the paper just a case of overfitting? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but it still makes me giddy remembering the Wim Wenders film.

Such a great soundtrack too! I rewatched it last week just for the jams. Also, for those into the glitch art genre, the dream sequences were WAY ahead of their time.
