Description
Obsolescence is the state of being which occurs when an object, service or practice is no longer wanted even though it may still be in good working order.
"This is the nucleus--after the child is born of woman, the man is
born of woman;
This is the bath of birth--this is the merge of small and large, and
the outlet again." Walt Whitman (I sing the body electric)

Love it! The little bit of blue at the chest contrasts wonderfully with the surrounding textures. And the rain with the splashes put it over the top.

Outstanding work Seth! and we have the attitude of programmed Obsolescence with all we own - we gotta get the bigger and better to keep up with the Jones' we gotta! We gotta!!!!!
Awesome work man, excellent Composition and FX. I had a Circuits Analysis instructor some 30 odd years ago who always used a 2 word phrase to refer to the future of Electronic and actually all manufactured goods, Planned Obsolescence, he ranted about how the future will be all about Newer, Shinier, Faster it's all that would matter, not how well it is designed, or how well manufactured it is. He was Right "Planned Obsolescence" Peace
