They then found Moebius and gradually crossed over into the wider realm of ANSI art. Since then, they've sent artwork to demoparties around the world, unwavering from their dedication to the underserved realm of furry art. They hope you enjoy their work and look forward to delivering their first proper artpacks sometime in the future! thegreenherring.neocities.org / thegreenherring.itch.io chitter.xyz/@TheGreenHerring / bsky.app/profile/thegreenherring.neocities.org -- Part of a feral tribe of uncontacted textmode artists at the 8bitMUSH at ANSIART.COM, LDA emerges from a family textmode art concern to grace us with the imagery of his people. -- littlebitspace has developed into a passionate practitioner of ASCII art and PETSCII experiments on esoteric and calcified themes. littlebitspace.com / mas.to/@littlebitspace / @littlebitspace.bsky.social -- Lockja doesn't call themself an artist. They love to scribble, minimalist drawings that rather capture an emotion than an object, a personality more than a person. ASCII is just another way to draw, something they do on their phone. With its limitations it deaccelerates like a meditation. lockja.bsky.social -- Because DurDraw was the only program that installed successfully and painlessly under Linux on the first try upon Googling ANSI editors, MC Fresher makes Unicode text art. -- 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 -- Melodia doesn't need an artgroup, she is an artgroup. One more case of the parade continuing after the band stopped playing, courtesy of the bottomless music in her head she kept on keeping on -- and indeed, has never stopped. We are humbled by her continuing association with us, as to her, all we have to offer is drag factor! soundcloud.com/xennial -- Moth aka Midnight is a dabbler with ANSI and ASCII art, pixelart and NES / Game Boy / Sega Saturn programming. They have an amateur radio license, enjoy bugs and think that Zampanio is a very fun game. -- Software developer mozz is an aspiring creator and ASCII art archivist, notably in the style as practiced in 90's usenet groups such as alt.ascii-art. He's a relative newcomer to the art scene, having discovered it through working with gopher and adjacent small-internet projects, and has since developed a deep appreciation for the medium. His website hosts a personal gallery along with an extensive archive of ASCII art collections, tutorials, and other historical resources. mozz.us -- When andy "ndh" herbert isn't making ANSI art (after all, he'll tell you: it's dead!), he's building ANSI art-related software, notably including the Moebius ANSI art editor. andyh.org/moebius / hachyderm.io/@andyh -- A '90s ANSI art acolyte recently finding his way back to the fold, Nitron has made up for lost time releasing solo artpacks and making guest appearances, putting up Hold Fast BBS, and is currently minting screens for BBS door games like it's going out of fashion -- 25 years too late! instagram.com/_n1tr0n -- From Twilight, the Legion, Avenge, Fire, Fuel and through to Blocktronics, the Swede known as Zeus II is a one-man ANSI art industry.
