I wasn't an ANSI artist in the 1990s, but more recently I've been creating animations in the Atari ST's obscure "IGS" format.

I'm most proud of an original "Calvin and Hobbes" animation I released last year that shows what might have happened if Calvin had owned _two_ cardboard boxes.

Mistodon: though we mostly focus on releasing science fiction-themed art in May, due to the interests of its mastermind, @kirkman, who provided most of its showpieces, there was quite a bit of it in the IGNITE01 collection of multimedia #AtariST #IGS (#InstantGraphicsAndSound) works we shared last year on New Year's Eve. Because scientific progress goes "boink", this one is a tribute to Bill Watterson's beloved #CalvinAndHobbes comic strip.

Mistodon: If you weren't around while its brand was a big league going concern, it is perhaps impossible to fully appreciate the stranglehold that the appearance of George Opperman's #Fuji logo for #Atari could establish on a young mind, living on rent-free for decades as a retrofuturistic visual shibboleth of sorts. It flies a colour-cycling flag here for the #AtariST home computer platform whose BBSes the #IGS (or #InstantGraphicsAndSound) multimedia format was designed for use on. IGS archaeologist @kirkman drew this animated image for inclusion in the new IGNITE01 artpack collection of modern IGS screens that he spearheaded.

Mistodon: This escaped Space Invader, drawn by @Polyducks , is a highlight of #IGS vector graphics from the recent IGNITE01 artpack collection of modern examples of the #AtariST's #InstantGraphicsAndSound format. You can enjoy further specimens via https://16colo.rs/pack/ignite01
