Modern Technology in Decay and Dilapidation

Challenge #10 in the The Art of Contradiction series. Hosted by sagebrushfire.

Challenge has finished

Take a photo where you combined things we see as being "modern" or "technological" but are in a state of decay or aging. These can be modern items that have decayed themselves or modern items in an old, decaying setting. Think of the original Star Wars, which broke ground as one of the most detailed and original views of a future land, where technology was extremely advanced but decayed and dilapidated at the same time.
