He is a co-founder of the Dead Pixel Society. instagram.com/8bit_poet / thedeadpixelsociety.net -- Axl is a Parisian artist who works in many styles but who has recently stumbled upon the Commodore 64's PETSCII aesthetic and is currently feverishly working every angle of it, machine-generated and bespoke. instagram.com/axltm -- Mike "Blippypixel" Rose is a digital artist whose tastes veer toward the vintage in electronic music and visuals, dabbling in low-poly 3D modeling, LED pixelart, and teletext as well as work in the distinctive palette of the BBC Micro. instagram.com/blippypixel -- A more focused student of the Commodore 64 aesthetic you will not find. Cal Skuthorpe made a splash invading Twitter with @PETSCIIbots, but that is only the first stage of his nefarious scheme for world domination. twitter.com/buzz_clik / petscii.tumblr.com -- Periodically we encounter someone who is not only a specialist in a given medium, but who also focuses on a specific theme to the exclusion of all others. Chuppixel is the world's preeminent Tiny Towers-style pixelart movie cast group shot specialist. instagram.com/chuppixel_ / chuppixel.tumblr.com -- Dos Grog continues in the expansion of our Italian contingent, demonstrating a playful devotion to the pixelart medium. instagram.com/dos_grog -- A genuine professional teletext illustrator two decades hence, Steve "Horsenburger" Horsley has recently returned to the game for love of the art: "It's kind of frustrating to discover you are good at something only to realise it's pointless in today's world, but I just really like doing it so I am going to carry on." We feel your pain, Steve! At his website you can commission original teletext creations from him, so don't delay to get your own piece of textmode art history! horsenburger.com -- Illarterate is a multimedia artist from Wigan, UK. Despite attempts to modernise, he will forever be known as 'That Guy That Does Teletext Art'. But whoever said that's a bad thing? twitter.com/illarterate / teletextart.tumblr.com danfarrimond.co.uk / portfolio.illarterate.co.uk -- Wolf spirit Involtino draws pixelart on a 100x100 scale when not studying architecture in Genoa. instagram.com/involtinopixel -- Lego_Colin uses a plethora of programs to prepare images for physical incarnation in the ultimate pixelart composition: assembled using Lego bricks. instagram.com/lego48x48 -- You won't see any of Mavrik's creative work in this archive, but there's a very good chance that the collection will have passed through his graciously-offered web hosting at mistigris.org en route to you, picking up from his historical facilitator role greasing the gears of Mist's KiTSCHNet echomail network from its home at Daemon's Gate BBS. daemonsgate.com -- Mentalpop is a Toronto-basic pixelartist who works in collaboration with indie game development teams and streams their creation sessions for Patreon supporters. mentalpop.ca -- A veritable patron of the arts, Morgan Lee, longtime Mistigris textile consultant, has continued apace in her mission of needlepoint pixelart. While t instagram.com/morganleemcpherson -- my_life_computerized explores the imposition of the aesthetics of vintage computing (specifically, the IBM PC CGA palette) to help make sense of our postmodern era. instagram.com/my_life_computerized -- Italian net.artist Nbreakfast thinks nothing of hacking a game ROM or patching in an obscenity to a breadboard to get his idea across. ngirotti.com -- Nikki and Bunty are, in their words, "two queer women who love retro games, technological tat ... and arty crafty stuff!" Given their peerless pedigree, it's more or less inevitable they would find their way into the teletext revival... at least one of them has taken up their arcane art, which we are authorized to share with you. nikkiandbunty.com -- It is not understatement to describe Ozero, the artist formerly known as Onyx, as a machine. Indeed, his total conversion is well underway! Compelled to focus on a single discipline rather than being hugely prolific in three, these days he fills Amazon with his ebooks. ozero.ca / twitter.com/ozero1 -- Ozunaga is just getting warmed up, but this may be the only portion of his pixelart practice that can be observed at this distance without welder's goggles. Stand back! instagram.com/ozunaga -- You'll find the visual art stylings of Ordinary_Pixel at the unlikely intersection of pixel art, pop culture, and fine art, laying down colours from a simplified palette in a conspicuously painterly fashion. instagram.com/ordinary_pixel -- Pinguino grew up on the internet, doing telco for CiA, and VGA for GAS and Rival. Lately, she runs the design studio Pinguhaus, goes raving on every continent, and experiments with obscure foods -- her latest accomplishment is making ramen noodles out of crickets. ivomitrainbows.com / twitter.com/pinguino -- Graphic designer pz does an excellent job at emulating having been there, then, with his very convincing oldschool ASCII art logo styles, but he has many delicious flavours. skybohannon.com -- Artscene OG Smooth has long been on the Mistigris periphery, his telnet BBS iNKý on our distro site list almost since our revival, but this month this elder statesman, founder of TeklordZ (with which Mist Classic spent almost its entire lifespan attempting unsuccessfully to merge with), descends from the heavens (by which I mean his regular ANSI and ASCII art gigs at Fuel and Impure) to save us -- yet again -- from yet another dopey Cthulu FILE_ID.DIZ. Hats off, sir! www.inktwo.com -- Every time I include her in an artpack, I find myself completely rewriting Theresa Oborn's bio, as though I might somehow hew closer to the truth, like a darts player hoping to hit a bullseye. She draws and sculpts, and perhaps the work speaks for itself. theresaoborn.com -- First exposed to Teletex back in the late '80s spending 2 years making teletex style pages with ViewData as part of school IT (& reading the adventures of Turner the Worm and Baboozle on Channel 4 teletex), currently TitaniumDave works in the games industry -- though his interest in Teletex was re-ignited by the (sadly-missed) Feb 2017 Block Party in Cambridge. davehingley.deviantart.com -- Uglifruit is the alter-ego of Andy Jenkinson. Andy is quite tall does things with music. Andy on occasion feels the need to express himself elsewhere. andyjenkinson.com / twitter.com/andyuglifruit -- Webersso.n made hyperstylized perler bead portraits of women with fauvist pop art colour schemes. instagram.com/webersso.n -- Communities of text art practice emerge through certain social contexts but the basic premise is such an appealing idea that it keeps getting invented and reinvented. XTComics draws comic strips using a combination of low ASCII characters and emoji. instagram.com/xtcomics -- Yet another tireless participant of the UK's teletext renaissance, it seems almost inevitable that we would provide a home for Alistair "ZXGuesser" Cree's playful screens beneath our umbrella. twitter.com/zxguesser MISTIGRIS DISTRIBUTION SITES: telnet://bbs.inktwo.com:23 telnet://guardian.synchro.net bbs.nz 16colo.rs artpacks.org mistigris.org instagram.com/mistfunk twitter.com/mistfunk tumblr.com/mistfunk and our usual round of greetz to our colleagues at: fuel.wtf, blocktronics.org impure.nl, amish.0w.nz, galza.org, Fire Dream, Break, pungas.space, @hirmuofficial, mircart.org, paleotronic.com, soundcloud.com/bitcouver, vanchipmusic.ca, null e-mag, ArakNet and TABNet!
