Dazed Magazineさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Dazed MagazineInstagram)「Has 2023 been the year we reached peak nostalgia?⁠ ⁠ With a The Last of Us TV adaption, Scream 6, a Mean Girls musical film, the first Big Brother season in five years, the Wonka prequel, the Hunger Games prequel, and the Five Nights At Freddy’s movie, as well as the re-grouping of popular UK bands such as S Club 7 and Girls Aloud it seems like we might be. ⁠ ⁠ It’s not just old ‘content’ being re-visited; digicams have made a comeback, Y2K is in full swing, and ‘Gen X’ soft club seems to be the new It Girl aesthetic for the new year. ⁠ ⁠ Professor Leander Reeves, a historian from @oxfordbrookes University who studies hyperreality, tells Dazed that nostalgia is simply our cultural muscle memory. ⁠ ⁠ “The end of the 20th century felt like a hopeful end to the decade where we shed our old thinking and traditions. In the UK specifically, we had the rise of New Labour, and at the time, it seemed like change,” says Dr Reeves. ⁠ ⁠ “Compare this to how vulnerable and unstable things seem to be now with rising prices as well as climate and global disasters. Young people must be angry and feeling robbed of what could have been, so nostalgia creeps in.” ⁠ ⁠ So what do you do instead of focusing on a future that’s not promised? You go back to the days of old.⁠ ⁠ Read more through the link in our bio 🔗⁠ ⁠ 📷 Mean Girls (2004)⁠ ✍️ @_haaniyah_」12月17日 2時25分
