Beuys Don’t Cry is trying to capture the disappearing, almost elusive, borderline between real and virtual worlds. For the three authors, digital media and virtual reality - the ability to think digitally - are a natural part of life. And maybe that's why they're looking for an escape from it, even though they work with electronic media tools. In their work they realize the visions of places and landscapes, seek and discover known and unknown worlds.They create a certain type of emotional landscape that is characteristic and determined by its composition, environment (3D design) and material. The theoretical refinement of 'virtual landscape' can be found, for example, in the text of Nicholas O’Brian Find 'Finding Place in the Digital' ’. He describes this state as an effort to reconstruct the original landscape of contemporary society. He writes about a form of present-day archeology that appears in the work of the authors of so-called land art of the future. Conversely, Keiko Sei theorist speaks of the original landscape. The Japanese word '' original landscape '' refers to the mental landscape, the feeling of childhood or the notion of a nonexistent place (a place associated with a particular emotional experience, mood). Similarly, he describes the interest in visiting film locations, places that have appeared in the film (and are therefore associated with a particular action and feeling).
