"Mondo imagined a future more far-out than any of its time. In its pages, readers glimpsed a hyper-accelerationist consumer dream of cyberspace made all more frighteningly real – then and now – by its prophetic synthesis of capitalism, psychedelic culture, and the computer age." - Dr. J. Christian Greer

Mondo Vision is an exploration of the visual culture of Mondo 2000, the iconic cyberculture magazine published 1984-1998, edited by R.U. Sirius and Queen Mu. Under the art direction of Bart Nagel, Mondo reinvented psychedelic aesthetics. This book hopes to capture some of the magic of the artwork that brought Mondo to life.
