In “Rendevouz” a different plot is presented – probably we can see here a showdown. The grooms from all over the world came to win the heart of the beautiful princess. They came officially dressed and brought the gifts.

“I need a lover and a friend
All friendships you transcend
And impotent I remain 
You are Noah and the Ark 
You are the light and the dark 
Behind the veil I remain 
You are passion and are rage 
You are the bird and the cage 
Lost in flight I remain 
You are the wine and the cup 
You are the ocean and the drop 
While afloat I remain” 
Molana, Ghazal no. 37

Anthropologically, the crypto world mostly consists of people who were culturally formed in the WEB 1.0 era (1990s). Therefore, MS DOS and Windows 3.11 aesthetics is present in visual elements of blockchain projects. At the same time, the high speed of the crypto world does not require long and detailed development of interface graphics. Thus, these two factors together gave a new impulse to this aesthetic. Being born within blockchain communities, NFT market has not been able to ignore this aesthetics, leading to numerous collections and drops actively using pixel art. This selection brings together not only works created in this nostalgic manner, but also those digital works that reference various iconic images and classical subjects from the art history. The Web 3 world only starts to understand that any image claiming any cultural significance cannot exist outside art history context.
