  1. Mistodon: I'm not exactly sure what this #ANSIart screen by @mavenmob depicts, but I know that his works are often informed by music, so ... this just might be Mother Love Bone caught in the act of inventing grunge! This piece was included in last month's unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  2. Mistigram: Rick has been running one BBS or another for 40 years now, a milestone celebrated by fellow SysOp Darkman Almighty in this #ANSIart screen of a desktop computer that might well have been there at the start of his spree.

(We urge the caller to find a different coaster, however! Apparently there are WinXP boxes with built-in cupholders!) This piece was included in last month's unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  4. MIST0826/DAROKIN-DISKMAGS_ARE_RAD_00

    Mistigram: this #blockASCII logo for the recursively radical ‘Diskmags Are Rad’ diskmag was drawn by @darokin and included in last month’s unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  5. Mistodon: #ANSIart and #bonsai, both aesthetically beholden to severe constraints, might have more in common than you expected! @codefenix_cc drew this ANSI illusrtation of a tiny tree and included it in last month's unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  6. MIST0826/US-WELCOME_TO_THE_NOUSNIVERSE

    Mistigram: this pseudoreflective logo was submitted as monochrome #pixelart by @nouscentric, but Cthulu thought it could be easily adapted to textmode and given a #LiteBrite colour treatment for extra punch, so we ran it like this in last month’s unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  7. Mistodon: Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water... This #blockASCII (uncoloured #ANSIart) illustration of #shark #jaws was drawn by @axb and included in last month's new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  8. Mistodon: for this year's 24th edition of the #TotalDOSCollection, VileR drew an #ANSIart scroller entirely concerned with time, as explored in classic computer games. This is a small excerpt of it, adapting #EricChahi's introductory graphics work in Delphine Software's 1989 #FutureWars. This piece was included in the new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  9. Mistigram: this #ANSIart portrait of Studio Ghibli’s #PrincessMononoke was drawn by @[email protected] and included in a colly of similar small works (presumably for use on the anime-themed Shurato’s Heavenly Sphere BBS) in the new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  10. Mistodon: this #ANSIart portrait of Studio Ghibli's #PrincessMononoke was drawn by Zeus II and included in a colly of similar small works (presumably for use on the anime-themed Shurato's Heavenly Sphere BBS) in the new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

  11. Mistodon: one of the biggest happy surprises of the new MIST0826 artpack collection is our including new work by j33p33, who has been MIA, computer art-wise, for the past six years. This #ANSIart gamer girl is part of a promo scroller for Nore BBS, which you should be able to telnet to via vetromac.dyndns-ip.com:232

  12. Mistigram: and people are always especially curious how we're holding up on the #ANSIart end of things. Well, a number of artists have drawn a lot of it, in many different styles and on widely varied subjects... Here's a sampling of what's on offer in the new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection!

  14. Mistodon: The new unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection is out, containing a wide variety of different kinds of vintage computer art, including #ANSIart and #teletext, #pixelart and #ASCIIart and music (difficult to illustrate).

  15. Mistodon: you think you're having a hard time in the sweltering sun, have a thought for this fully-armoured member of the #KnightsTemplar crusading in the Egyptian desert circa the 12th/13th century, here drawn in #ANSIart by Darkman Almighty. This piece was included in the MIST0822 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

  16. Fleshing out two subjects noted in passing in yesterday's article on Mist's 2023 The Big Dig #ANSIart joint, today we have written up Blocktronics' ACiD Trip and WTF4 scrollers from 2013 and 2014 respectively, the largest ANSI art works ever drawn:

  17. Mistodon: this toony #ANSIart promo for Pedantik's BBS The Neon Jesus was drawn as a lifted truck by Mavrik (because hey, why not?) It was included in the MIST0896 artpack collection released 30 years ago this month!

  18. Just trying a 4x8 pixels font to display ANSI pictures on your 320x200 Atari ST screen.

    On the right, the great ANSI Panda by Necro/Fire (Evoke 2024)

    On the left, the same in Atari ST Steem emulator, with my 4x8 ANSI font (GFA-Basic only)

  19. Mistodon: this greyscale #ANSIart logo for the RAiD WHQ BBS Rise of the Midnight Sons, run by Pantera and named after a 1992 Ghost Rider plot arc, was drawn by Solinari and included in the MIST0895 artpack collection as part of a logocolly, released 31 years ago this month.

  20. MIST0823/MM-ABOUTAFONT

    Mistigram: @mavenmob’s #ANSIart illustrations are often inspired on some level by the artist’s musical selections. Is this one, ‘About A Font’, made in response to @NEFFEX’s 2022 song ‘As You Fade Away’? Only the artist knows for sure. This piece was included in the MIST0823 artpack collection released three years ago this month.
