Mistigram: this hypnotic Twilight Zone-ish greyscale #ANSIart screen, "Ghost Machine Swirl", was drawn by Darkman Almighty and included in the spooky MIST1024 artpack collection released two years ago this month. Are you the ghost? Are you in the machine, or is it in you?

Mistigram: this creepy little skeletal pirate dude was adapted to #ANSIart by DW of Dark Systems BBS, and we included it as an infofile illustration in the spooky MIST1022 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

Happy International Raccoon Day! Here's some art from a new project coming soon! Eddy the Cleaner about to take on the challenge of his life vs. the awkward photo they shot of him when he wasn't ready for it!

(In real life the killer whale is composed of pixelated black and white blocks, and ironically looks quite a bit more like #ANSIart in person than this rendition indicates.)

MIST0826/CT-DIGITAL_ORCA

Mistigram: in last month’s unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection, Cthulu was explicitly looking to adapt imagery suggestive of Mist’s origins in area code 604 (aka #Vancouver) and one place his search brought him was artist-author #DouglasCoupland’s 2009 sculpture #DigitalOrca, installed in #CoalHarbour. In real life the killer whale is composed of black and white blocks, and ironically looks quite a bit more like #ANSIart in person than this rendition indicates.

Though the sculpture is located in the Downtown previously viewed from afar in Nitron’s landscape yesterday, you will note that (coincidentally) the specific stretch of North Shore Mountains depicted in the far background is virtually identical in both works and can practically be made to overlap each other.

MIST0826/NI-KITSB

Mistigram: Nitron visited area code 604, traditional stomping grounds of Mistigris, over the summer, and was moved to draw this view of Downtown Vancouver’s West End (and the North Shore mountains behind it) across False Creek from Kits Beach on a forest fire smoky day. This hazy scene was included in last month’s unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection.

MIST0826/MM-KONSTANTIN

Mistigram: 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.

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.

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.

MIST0826/CODEFENIX-BONSAI

Mistigram: #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.

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.

MIST0826/AXB-SHARK_JAWS

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

Mistigram: 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 #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

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!

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).

MIST0826/FILE_ID

Mistigram: introducing the new, unthemed MIST0826 artpack collection, full of a lot of varied computer art and music from a wide array of contributors. You can investigate it through your web browser at https://16colo.rs/pack/mist0826 or download it locally via https://mistigris.org/packs/MIST0826.ZIP

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.

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:
