Opening 20 year old software on it's anniversary

I tried to explain what the predominant "modern" art style of the 1980s was to a friend and tried to explain it as a combination of op-art, Memphis Furniture, and Nagel's clean poster lines, influenced a bit by punk and new wave music wardrobes. Then and right now, I couldn't seem to do it justice. If anyone has an art background, I'd love to try to get a handle on what that kind of art style was called. To keep this OT, and to hopefully try to explain what I'm trying to say, here are more examples of this kind of style in the software (and its packaging) of the time: http://www.mobygames.com/game/tass-times-in-tonetown/cover-art/gameCoverId,… http://www.mobygames.com/game/amiga/california-games/screenshots/gameShotId… http://www.mobygames.com/game/pc-booter/tass-times-in-tonetown/cover-art/ga… http://www.mobygames.com/game/alter-ego/cover-art/gameCoverId,6759/ And from a firm that did software package design during that era: http://www.woodswoods.com/images/identity/jump.jpg -- Jim Leonard (trixter at oldskool.org) http://www.oldskool.org/ Help our electronic games project: http://www.mobygames.com/ Or check out some trippy MindCandy at http://www.mindcandydvd.com/ A child borne of the home computer wars: http://trixter.wordpress.com/
