since its commercial launch — aided by ridley scott’s orwellian marketing — in 1984, the apple macintosh (or 128k) has gone down in tech history. its graphic interface, and introduction of the mouse, began for many a life long loyalty to the then relaxed californian company. UK based dorothy pays homage to the iconic computer with ‘inside information’, a three color litho-print. the cutaway poster imagines the internal occurrences in the classic design. long-term loyalists may recognize some of the visual references to apple, and popular culture as well. ‘inside information: apple macintosh’ is available through dorothy here.
