In its infancy, the Internet was a visual mishmash, featuring tacky graphics and clashing elements. Despite these imperfections, it charmed users with its sincere nature. This thesis explores the shared experiences of the generations shaped by the early Internet. Graphic design, paired with narrative and humor, is a vehicle for storytelling. A collection of curated moments invites viewers to celebrate simpler times and rekindle fond memories.
