what is this asethetic called?
late 80's/early 90's two color gradients?
everything technology-wise had boxes or advertisements that looked like this

The emerging term seems to be Vaporwave. It originated in music, but I'm seeing it used to describe 90s technology too.
>>54745681
It's called Vaporwave

Doesn't Sony have a patent on "vaporwave" design?
>tfw Idiocracy already happened

No, it's far too elusive of a concept for anyone to be able to patent it.
However, there is a particular brilliant shade of blue which Sony uses often which might be a trademarked color. It's featured heavily in their products.

Wouldn't it just be the 'vapor' aesthetic since a wave would create sound so a vaporwave would be a 80s/90s influenced song

And I'm going out on a limb here but it seems to me in Japan blue is associated with building and constructing. Construction vehicles in Japan are often blue or green, rather than the western yellow.
>>54745751
Maybe, but most people won't think about it on that level.

You can't make a choice at this point. The ball is already rolling.
does this count

In Japan and Korea, red on financial information means increase and blue means decrease, not green for increase and red for decrease like in the West.
Strange how the red means the opposite thing over there.

What you have there are floppy disks, which are considered 90's culture
>>54745695
vaporwave is progressive though, it is distinctly different than legitimate 80's and 90's culture. i.e. an episode of Rugrats is not Vaporwave, but an episode of Rugrats at 40% speed, inverted colors and a variation of the theme is.

The really early dev PS-X machines had a beautiful sky blue finish instead of that darker blue: controllers as well. I'm gutted I never got a photo and haven't seen any surviving specimens.

You might call an art movement a "wave".
