He is a co-founder of the Dead Pixel Society. instagram.com/8bit_poet / thedeadpixelsociety.net -- AXB threw down newschool ASCII art with the best -- Remorse, ACiD and Unit -- during the underground computer artscene's silver age, starting in 1996... but since none of them are around anymore, he's been reduced to slumming with us. iaxb.com/ascii.htm -- 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 -- Bliss is another of our rotating cast of seasoned textmode artist guest-stars visiting from the alt-ANSI utopia of the 8bitMUSH at ansiart.com, handy with their screen-condensed, palette-extended variant, described as FANSI.

That's right: doing it in Microsoft Excel, using the spreadsheet cells as the picture elements. Carl Dizon is one of a very few specialists in the use of this outsider art tool. instagram.com/eduardo_calamar -- A few years following the release of the final Mist Classic artpack collection, c00k13_m0n5t3r was born.

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 -- Kazunari "Kalcha" Naito represents the tip of an iceberg we know little of and understand still less of -- Japan's Shift_JIS parallel textmode art scene.

She has taken up the arcane art of teletext, which we are authorized to share with you. twitter.com/gentlemannikki -- Just Another Geek from Costa Rica, N1njaF1reman (just who put out that fire anyway?) got into ANSI art by accident after finding out (through a line of work living in the terminal) that the BBS scene still lives, enjoying the good challenge of ANSI's restricted color count and low resolution.ÿ Larger subjects may lie ahead! instagram.com/n1njaf1reman -- Part of a peculiar current of untapped anxious ANSI art energy charging new talents on the periphery of the digital underground, this time around Odd got zapped with the voltage. @TheOddFireCat -- Ozunaga is just getting warmed up... put on your welder's goggles and stand back! instagram.com/ozunaga -- Pinguino grew up on the internet, doing telco for CiA, and VGA for GAS and Rival.

His modern graphite portrait practice must have somehow influenced his PETSCII style, driving him to try to get the most out of every single character cell. The only software he uses is Petmate, a nice PETSCII editor, and you can see his PETSCII handiwork in releases by The Solution. @snakepetsken -- Carl "TeletextR" Attrill represents Mistigris' continuing wave of introducing the great public textmode art tradition -- teletext -- to the underground computer artscene. teletextr.blogspot.com / @carlos_teletextr -- Uglifruit is the alter-ego of Andy Jenkinson.
