There are countless Syd Mead artworks that could qualify for Space Crowd Saturday. Here's one example of the type of inscrutable futuristic party he often created, from the buffets to the fashion and architecture.

Some of Syd Mead's concept art for Blade Runner, upscaled to wallpaper res 3840x2160, cropped, denoised, color corrected and otherwise edited for the screen. These are NOT the originals as produced by Mr. Mead, if you are looking for 1:1 unmolested versions of the original art this isn't it.
(I'm not sure Tumblr will host these at the original full-res without downsampling them? See what happens I guess)
I zipped the full-sizes on my Dropbox if you should want them.

Syd Mead, 2004. Mead was inspired by Kaneda's bike in Akira, which in turn Katsuhiro Otomo said was inspired by the lightcycles in TRON which were designed by Syd Mead!
