Go read some pre-modern aesthetics and you'll figure it out.

Originally, it means that your art obeys some hidden law or Platonic form and so pleases the senses of order and divinity.

A picture might be arranged to golden ratios, and your sense of aesthetics would apprehend this, even if you don't think "Hey, this is all ratios!"

Aesthetics also means recognizing and revealing the 'form' of something. For example, an aesthetic apple is a hyperperfect apple--it is the essential apple.

Now, aesthetics means "idk let's menstruate in a bucket cuz art is subjective idk xD"

It isn't a interesting homage or interpretation of 80s/90s CGI and early-OS aesthetics. It's just lazy cyberpunk "lol japanese lmfao CRT monitors"

Not sure who originally did it but it became typical after the Floral Shoppe became popular.

Afaik this is the case, but it mainly has to do with how people in the 80's used Roman/Greek statues as convenient images to demonstrate the capabilities of computers to render art. I think.
