Birth Of An Internet Empire & The Rebirth of Ecommerce or Just Art?
The world as we know it changes and develops and Ecommerce may be headed for its renaissance in the guise of two visionary new websites.
— The release of http://highstreetshopsonline.com is a redawn of the days of graduer for the shoppers of tomorrow - online shoppers. This website is the launchpad for two revolutionary new online shopping destinations. The Metro Plaza Online http://www.themetroplazaonline.com and High Street Fashion Emporium http://www.highstreetfashionemporium.com
The websites relive the golden age of elaborate architecture and opulant surrounds for shoppers that were a hallmark of the art nuevo period of the 1920’s. By combining art with technology, the visitor is given a truly unique online shopping experience. This philosophy of a symbiance of art and technology is nothing new however as it gave us buildings such as the Chrysler Building, that typifies an age of style in New York. It also typifies Harrods golden era, when world trade was brought to Londeners by Harrod’s motto of ‘you can buy anything from Harrods.’ How fitting that The Metro Plaza Online should incorporate Harrods as one of its premier stores in its vast consortium of online stores.
There’s someting almost matrix like about this simulation of a virtual CBD that is The Metro Plaza Online. It’s a prophetic vision of the future, whilst also a cultural resonance of Fritz Lang’s 1926 movie Metropolis. Art and the future it seems are constantly intertwined. We are destined to revisit past eras and influences through new medium, as technology progresses towards its indeterminable point on the horizon.
Whatever feeling of awe we may experience, whilst taking a tour, http://www.themetroplazaonline.com and http://www.highstreetfashionemporium.com demonstrates to us that we are in an age where we stand on the shoulders of past giants. The multi million dollar shopping emporium of old is replaced with light and art. As bricks and mortar and marble and brass were in the past, light and art are the construction materials of the commercial world of the future. The Rockerfellers of tomorrow walk amongst us with nothing more than laptops and dreams.
