Summary/Abstract: It seems that the internet aesthetic has undergone a peculiar change since the outbreak of the 2020 pandemic. This transformation has been driven by the growing popularity of social media platforms that rely almost exclusively on video content. After the long-awaited "death of postmodernism," there is now a noticeable inclination to excessively reuse certain cultural forms whose origin can be traced back to the Romantic era. This essay explores how Romantic aesthetic practices have unexpectedly reemerged in new digital media, especially in the last three years.
