~ A E S T H E T I C ~

One this that oscar has heard a lot from me about, its the concept of A E S T H E T I C (That will be the last time i type it like that). It originate from Vaporwave, which a youtube video once told me was all about anti-consumerism and poking fun at consumerism in the 80s and 90s, which then turned into an ironic meme, but my enjoyment stems from the aesthetic of the concept of aesthetic. Let me explain, the concept of aesthetic i enjoy revolves around that 90s style, of bright cyans and magnetas, 90s and 80s imagery and music. Its hard to explain but i will show you some examples, it also ties into retrofuturism, which i enjoy, from steampunk, dieselpunk to now this.



i can't say what particularly draws me to this idea, perhaps its the bright colours, perhaps it personal nostalgia, or perhaps its my fascination with retrofuture concepts, but what i do know is i really love this style, and i definitly want to do something similar in the future.
