An aesthetic
consolidation of postmodernism into highly-resolved aesthetic lines. Super-linearity; not so much a separate "-ism" as much as post-postmodernism. A celebration of the physical object alongside the processes that created it before the object becomes obsolete forever. Hipsterism. Brooklyn in 2017 : )
Supermodernity is characterized by form-function unity; an inflection point between the form-function duality of postmodernism and the design-attribute duality of
hypermodernism.
A hipster in Brooklyn who eats craft
jerky on a butcher board in the shadow of super-linear buildings of glass and steel is living an era of supermodernity; an era which celebrates an aesthetic
consolidation of the
postmodern past.
