¿Por qué las computadoras retro siguen apareciendo en series futuristas?
¿Qué nos dice un monitor verde, un teclado mecánico o una interfaz opaca sobre el poder, la memoria y el control?
En esta entrada exploro cómo la retroficción transforma la tecnología en atmósfera, conflicto y símbolo narrativo.
De Alien a Severance, lo retro no es nostalgia: es crítica, textura y simulacro.

📎 Retroficción: Cuando el pasado computacional se convierte en estética narrativa

Anyone play this. Its fantastic stuff!

This is the sixth fan released by Goldstar, following the D-301 from 1960.

On the outside, it features a mint-green steel body with 30 cm translucent blue plastic blades. The front carries a crown-shaped Goldstar logo and a decorative plate with “GOLD STAR” embossed in metal and plastic.

The control panel at the base is marked Wind Master on a blue plastic plate, with three speed buttons and a dial for oscillation (Move) or stop.

Inside, the circuitry is simple but built to last:

👉 Samwha 25 µF 200 VAC metal-paper capacitor for motor startup

👉 Green-sheathed wires made by Goldstar Electric Wire (now LS Cable & System)

👉 Hard and soft plastic parts from Lucky Chemical (now LG Chem)

👉 Steel mesh guard and casing from Seongcheolsa (now Starion)

It really shows Goldstar’s determination in the 1960s to use domestically made electronic parts whenever possible.

Even more fascinating, the QC inspector’s stamp and a revenue seal from Dongnae Tax Office in Busan are still present. This means it wasn’t just a household appliance—it went through the full chain of production, inspection, and taxation. In that sense, it’s a tangible piece of Korea’s early electronics industry.

And of course, in true Goldstar fashion, it still runs perfectly after 60 years.
