Blade Runner (1982)
Lexisnexis computer from 1976
The groundbreaking computer animator and artist Brummbaer has left us today (1945–2016). His diverse practice started in the 1960s with pavement painting, psychedelic poster design, and light shows for Amon Düül II, Frank Zappa, Tangerine Dream, etc. By the 1970s, he was running an underground comix company and had translated/edited Robert Crumb’s first book into German.
With the 1980s, he discovered his most expressive medium—the computer. He was a prolific computer artist with innumerable animations as well as digital paintings (a master of Deluxe Paint). He also created SFX for Johnny Mnemonic and a CG history retrospective for SIGGRAPH ‘95. Several health battles came with the 2000s but he continued to create and publish two autobiographical books. In describing Brummbaer during a 1992 interview:
Ever modest with regard to the magic that he spins, Brummbaer says that his philosophy of creativity stems from his notion that an artist is but a humble window washer. His computer screen, he claims, is simply a window that allows him to see through into other worlds, and all he does is polish the screen so that we can see through to the other side.
Rest in peace Brummbaer
“Once you have let your optical membranes caress Brummbaer’s electrifying, throbbing screens you understand that your brain is a soft, juicy, pulsing cyber-sea with 100 billion computers (called neurons) waiting to be strobed with intelligent, funny digitals… Brummbaer’s name will be honored in the cybernetic Hall of Fame because he was the one of the first hackers to convert the computer into a pulsating, vibrating instrument of pleasurable communication.” -Timothy Leary, 1990 (source)
Rest in peace to an under-appreciated innovator.

'Cinema Futura' movie theater - Zhongshan, China (2014)
Designed by Alexander Wong
"Вased on futurism and inspired by classic sci-fi movies like Ridley Scott's Alien and James Cameron's Avatar, the design attempts to create the first sci-fi cinema in Zhongshan, China. The 36,800-square-foot interior is a complex composition of organic design elements that create original forms. These forms are custom made with fiberglass molds, bold colors, and dynamic lighting to produce a futuristic ambience.
At the entrance, one immediately arrives at the Plaza Pandora, a surrealistic biosphere with an organic ceiling supported by double-layered spiraling columns with an outer skin inspired by DNA strands called chromosome columns and the movie Alien. Here, one will also notice the white leaf-like patterns on the floor with matching metallic pendant lights swirling dynamically above. The plaza is encompassed by the sensual forms of the Pandora Box Office and Bar Pandora where moviegoers can buy tickets and popcorn to begin their unique journey into movie fantasy. Our inspiration here is nature itself. Nature is filled with the most complex geometrical shapes imaginable. In terms of this complexity and the sophistication of our universe in its entirety, sci-fi and futurism only reflect a tiny fraction. We are deeply inspired, or quite simply, in awe of nature. It is the source of all art forms, including architecture and spatial design."

Reminds me of Metalheart and Vectorheart styles in this design, though in architectural terms this would fall under Deconstructivism
