About this product:

Composed and conducted by Art Mineo, 'Man in Space with Sounds' served as the soundtrack to the futuristic "Bubbleator" exhibit at the 1962 Seattle World's Fair. The Bubbleator was a large, bubble-shaped hydraulic elevator with transparent acrylic glass walls. These transparent walls gave the illusion of looking through an actual 'soap bubble' by refracting light to obtain a rainbow-like effect for the riders inside. It moved 2.5 million people (150 passengers at a time) through displays promising an easier life ahead (The World of Tomorrow). The 'House of Tomorrow' might include disposable dishes, automatic windows, and changeable color schemes. Gyrocopters might zip and whiz you to the 'Office of Tomorrow', which might have miniature micro-mail, machines to transmit correspondence, and machines that communicated with each other. 'Man In Space With Sounds' was the soundtrack heard on this 21 minute tour of the future. Welcome to tomorrow.....
