Vaporwave, Retrowave, etc. are all interesting throwback forms that seem to be grounded in reproducing and modernizing a certain audiovisual aesthetic...without being specifically constrained by the forms being paid homage to. I find this movement very cool.<p>For decades there&#x27;s also been a few &quot;underground&quot; digital art scenes that are unusually vibrant and have gained some measure of respect outside of their specific milieus. The demoscene in particular has become famous for audio&#x2F;visual and <i>technical</i> excellence that almost requires an educated and informed audience to appreciate on deep levels, but is also at least entertaining to non-in-crowd viewers.
