I misread the OP as the "Iconography of Vaporware," which actually sounded mildly interesting. Then I opened the link and discovered that I was mistaken on both counts.

anyway i've always felt the use of Japanese characters and special unicode letters was to mimic branding for globalized markets, e.g. one factory that ships to multiple countries

quote:

“[Directors are] projecting a future by imagining how it would look in ruins,” said Michael Hays, a professor of architectural theory at Harvard. “All the flesh has been removed and you just see the architectural bones. I’ve always thought Portman’s buildings would make very beautiful ruins, because the essence of them is so powerful and so direct.”

Hays also believes filmmakers use architecture to represent societies that are forming or collapsing, and conceptual structures are too eccentric to symbolize the collective groups that dominate dystopian storylines. Portman’s work fits on film in part because his design philosophy straddles the modernism and brutalism handed down to his generation from predecessors such as Le Corbusier and Marcel Breuer, who strove to incorporate functionality and community into their buildings.

The social experiment of Arts and Contemporary Studies continues on in speciality programs at The New School in NYC.

i always took it as invoking the extreme cultural capitalism that prevails in japan, like 1950s america turned up to 12
