The tip of the iceberg… Steve “Horsenburger” Horsley has emerged from retirement (as a onetime teletext illustration professional) and has discovered that the machinery is still all well-oiled and the motions near seamless. (For a pittance, he would be happy to sell you a teletext portrait!) The hard part isn’t getting him to draw teletext, it’s getting him to stop! Here we see a consummately Hallowe'eny piece from his massive appearance in yesterday’s MIST1016 artpack… it is of course the Ghostbusters logo, and as I noted elsewhere – it’s nice to see that seemingly antiquated computer art forms such as teletext aren’t actually any more dated than their contemporaries in the world of comedy and entertainment! This rendition allows you to celebrate them both like it’s 1984 all over again!
