TRON
TRON is a 1982 sci-fi classic that visualised a man's journey into a computer. The film baffles and inspires in equal measure. We love it because of its extremely free way of visualising the world.

The depiction of spaces as grids and wireframe outlines is reminiscent of late 60s early 70s Italian theoretical architects Superstudio. (below)

The more or less outrageous use of wireframe visuals mixed with live action actors and actresses, as well as the bold and fresh colour palette inspired our SWITCH wire basket.

However, people love this film beyond its visuals. It is discussed at length in an entertaining podcast by Financial Times journalists for what it has to say about corporations.
As far as we're concerned, it's all garbage ;-)
