I'm thinking sometime in between the 1950s through sometime in the 1970s, pop culture tried to go in a futuristic direction. Cartoons like Jetsons come to my mind. I think the aesthetic I might be talking about is called atompunk.   
Honestly looks a lot more cooler and futuristic than the Y2K era.

Cyberpunk in the 80s and 90s You could see it everything from dystopian movies about a government controlled and highly developed future, from the future like Mad Max, Robocop, Tron, Total Recall, and Blade Runner, Apple 1984 ads, industrial music, video games, toys, cartoons etc from the early 80s to the mid 90s. 1910s to 1930s: futurist but also early avant garde, constructivist, and early modernist art/design/film/architecture movements: Futurist Posters:    A lot of bauhaus furniture from the 1930s like the below sometimes gets confused with 2000s or Y2K style:   g

I was looking forward to your input on this. I dig this aesthetic and I can’t help but feel that it was miles above late 1999 through early 2001 and it doesn’t seem close. The Y2K era seems like a more commercialized version of this. From around the very end of the 90s till today to some degree,, this avant garde and modernist style that was popular from the 1910s to the 1940s across different fields was ripped off and became the standard style across so many things, what you see today is more of a modernized spin of this style with different elements.

Whats annoying me is people thinking hackers from 1995 is a Y2K movie, the movie is like classic core 90s cyberpunk movie, with the 90s cyberpunk aesthetic with some minor Y2K elements scattered here and there. 90s cyberpunk movie trailers: Some people confuse early to mid 90s cheesy CGI or cyberpunk or computer hacker movies with Y2K on some wikis, its really annoying.
