Humans have always constructed ideas and collective presuppositions which we use to define the boundaries of what is accepted. This is known as Episteme. Once taken root in humans' network, an episteme becomes the uncoerced Order of Things that govern our perception on various aspects of life, including, but not limited to work, relationships, and art.

History does not only tell us what happened; it also illuminates what’s happening today. For this reason, subtle or apparent similarities can exist between a past and present event. The Pop Art movement from the ‘40s to ‘80s and the Crypto Art movement of today follow this hypothesis. Although emerging from disparate eras of human civilization, the parallels between these art movements are very telling.
