Stay tuned! dsbbs.ca -- Grymmjack celebrated us in the 20th century and was baffled on the occasion of our revival, but in the fullness of time he has come back around to his initial response, jumping with both feet into manifesting our intention as a crossroad for computer creativity. twitter.com/grymmjack -- 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 -- Every medium has several modes: a pre-modern approach, a clean "modern" style, and a post-modern detournement, often in the "glitch" idiom. In Jellica Jake, teletext has found its glitch m(a/on)ster! It is such a simple 3-bit medium there quite simply isn't the complexity needed for things to go really wrong, but somehow this artist, doing more with less, has found depths of texture to imply psychological profundity between the lines. twitter.com/jellicajake / instagram.com/jellica_______ / kittenrock.co.uk -- Taking inspiration from the basic medium of ASCII art, Joni "nscii" Caparas treats the characters as design elements on a black canvas, in a fashion similar to, but fundamentally different from, artscene ASCII practice. Basically, from their base in Berlin they've reinvented the artform from first principles. instagram.com/joninscii / jonicaparas.com -- The idea was so great it was inevitable that it would spontaneously emerge in different contexts: Kurogao is another visionary straddling the related but very different worlds of ASCII art and emoji typography, blending both into single-panel vignettes. instagram.com/kurogao96 -- littlebitspace experiments with ASCII art, now turning it into a line art medium, now dabbling with the use of negative space, superimposed for effect against high resolution backgrounds. instagram.com/littlebitspace -- You won't see any of Mavrik's creative work in our recent archives, 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 -- You may well have seen the textmode works of Andy "ndh" Herbert in Blocktronics artpacks, but for reasons known only to his slush-loving self, he has lowered his sights to Mistigris as a suitable computer arts community in which to linger. When he's not editing ANSI art, he's programming ANSI art editors -- his Moebius application is a breath of fresh air, well worth investigating for seasoned hands and those new to the medium alike! andyh.org/moebius -- A '90s ANSI art acolyte recently finding his way back to the fold, Nitron has made up for lost time by releasing a solo pack and putting up Hold Fast BBS, and is currently minting screens for door games (and NFTs) like it's going out of fashion. @ansinitron -- A silent partner (collaborator or enabler?) underwriting many foolish and eminently worthwhile ventures with goading and occasional direct support, Pannekoekologist brings his creative powers to bear on classic subjects vintage and modern. -- A Milk Dud isn't a failed candy, but a happy accident, an inadvertent discovery of something great. Which brings us to Pixeldud. twitter.com/ThePixelDud / ko-fi.com/pixeldud -- Ed "Starstew" Stastny is that rare synthesis suggested in the two-word phrase "computer artist", practicing a species of net.art at SITO continually since even prior to the establishment of Mistigris. Having mastered (and subsequently discarded) so many styles and approaches, wearing the masks of a half-dozen faux handles he could easily masquerade as an entire artgroup. (Or has he in fact been doing this... all along?) instagram.com/starstew / starstew.tumblr.com -- 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 -- 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. zxnet.co.uk -- MISTIGRIS DISTRIBUTION SITES: telnet://bbs.inktwo.com:23 16colo.rs/group/mistigris artpacks.org mistigris.org instagram.com/mistfunk twitter.com/mistfunk discord.gg/9R84QUN tumblr.com/mistfunk ... and our usual round of greetz to our colleagues at: blocktronics.org, LazarusBlocks.com, Legacy, impure.nl, galza.org, @hirmuofficial, soundcloud.com/bitcouver, vanchipmusic.ca, ArakNet and TABNet!
