2000 As Seen In 1900

French Year 2000 Prediction

Here’s an interesting set of pictures by Jean-Marc Côté and other artists from around 1900 depicting what they thought the world would be like by the year 2000. Some of them at least partially came true. The “busy farmer” is partially true as farming has become more automated. “Electronic Scrubbing” does reflect what a Roomba is today. Sadly no flying cars.

Interesting to note flying was a very common theme.

“The Bunkers”

French Bunker

A French military bunker from WWI and WWII was discovered by urban explorers. The preservation of some of the vehicles is amazing. So very cool. Hopefully this gets preserved and protected against vandalism and theft.
