Egor Ship, Konfuz, Niletto and others at the VKontakte graduation

We already knew that their VKontakte activity is at a high level, but their online graduation exceeded all our expectations. XR technologies have become the highlight of the holiday, which will be remembered not only by the eleventh graders, but also by us.

The artists performed their songs not on stage as we are used to, but in a virtual space created by digital artists inspired by the heritage of Russian culture. For example, Klava Koka was based on the production of “Swan Lake”, Eldar Dzharakhov – the painting by Erik Bulatov, one of the founders of Sots Art, and the painting “Six-Winged Seraphim” by Tima Akimov – Mikhail Vrubel. To be honest, we’re definitely impressed with the way classical works of art take on completely new meanings and incarnations here.

But perhaps the most striking performance at the event was singer Anna Asti, who, by the way, got into the online flame of eleventh graders before she celebrated her birthday today. The place of the artist was inspired by the fiery scene in Andrei Tarkovsky’s The Mirror, which very accurately reflects the beginning of his solo career after a long duet. An unexpected cooperation, but we believe it is quite valuable.

By the way, among the performances of the artists, the hosts of online graduates Stas Kruglitsky and Masha Minogarova presented valuable prizes. Thus, today someone not only enjoyed a 4-hour concert of their favorite artists, but also acquired a smart speaker with built-in Marusya voice assistant. At that moment, we were more upset than ever that we had not been eleventh graders in a long time, and in our time there was nothing but rustling graduation tapes and boring songs about the last call.

But it seems we don’t just regret not graduating today. So, in a conversation with The Fashion Vibes, Yegor Gemi admitted that he does not remember his vacation at all, since he passed over cocktails. Therefore, her graduation is over before it even started, but you really want to remember the memories mentioned above. And Cyril Skrypnik got into trouble with his friends instead of fun and entertainment, and his evening did not end the way we wanted at all. Most importantly, of course, the artist Konfuz was lucky – at graduation he performed in front of his classmates. In addition, a teacher was photographed with him, who said that the young artist would become a janitor due to not very bright academic performance. However, we dare to assume that these are not exactly the emotions experienced by graduates today. Therefore, now that we have the opportunity to witness the VKontakte online holiday every year, we can make up for missing memories from such a bright event in life as graduation!
