#mist0424 — Public Fediverse posts

Mistigram: @blippypixel brings his #teletext editor back to the #AndyWarhol well for one final take on serially repetitive permutations on iconic topics — here none other than the Covid-19 coronavirus, whose 15 minutes of fame have certainly overstayed their welcome. As the compromised host cells of an infected and contagious person turn into virus factories, a metaphor resonates with Warhol’s name for his screenprinting print shop studio — also called “The Factory”… as is this screen, which was included in the recent fine art-themed MIST0424 artpack collection.

Mistigram: whatever your favorite iconic subject, it makes for an excellent fit in #AndyWarhol’s serially repetitive, garishly tinted #popart style. @littlebitspace here shares with us textmode illustrations of skulls (possibly current portraits of Marilyn Monroe!) using the #PETSCII character set. This piece was included in the recent fine art-themed MIST0424 artpack collection.

Mistigram: The first #ANSIart screen we profile from the new #fineart-themed MIST0424 artpack collection is this composition by @_n1tr0n, a juxtaposition of #sailboat racing with the neo-plasticism of #DeStijl painter #PietMondrian. The artist/sailor states he depicts: “my favorite moment in a boat race, the approach to the windward mark… the mondrian colors are supposed to reflect the elements of the scene, the sea, the sun, the sky, the racing spirit of the crew in red… I drew that ANSI the day I decided to sell the boat, actually.”

This image is secretly responsible for the specific timing of the release of our fine art collection, as tracking down the specific fate of a particular Nitron guest submission resulted in the discovery of an entire trove of worthwhile artworks on this theme that had been carefully stashed away and then forgotten about.
