MIST0426/WA-ATLAS


 Mistigram: a guest apperance by Warpus of Lazarus, this #ANSIart entry in last month's books-themed MIST0426 artpack collection is a Polish historical atlas, clearly frequently-consulted judging by the wear patterns on its cover.

 Mistigram: this #teletext illustration, drawn by @atonalosprey, adapts a scene from #PaulGoble's award-winning 1978 children's book #TheGirlWhoLovedWildHorses. This screen was included in last month's new books-themed MIST0426 artpack collection.

MIST0426/CT-NICK_MONTFORT-TWISTY_LITTLE_PASSAGES

 

Mistigram: looking for representation from the non-fiction field for last month's new literary MIST0426 artpack collection, Cthulu opted to make an #ANSIart adaptation of the maze-like cover art to #NickMontfort's 2005 history of the #textadventure computer game genre, #TwistyLittlePassages.

ADEPTAPRIL/AUG14


 Mistigram: on this date in 1457, one year after the Gutenberg Bible was made, the Mainz Psalter became the first book made with a multicolour printing process. As in this #ANSIart illustration by AdeptApril, I don't believe that any of these books depicted knights fighting dragons, but the important point is: they _should_ have.

ADEPTAPRIL/AUG09


 Mistigram: AdeptApril really puts the text in #textmode art this time, illustrating an apparently delightful (and seemingly enormous) #book in #ANSIart for Book Lovers Day. (Maybe it's a volume from Misprint Manuscripts?) Don't forget your bookmark!

 Mistigram: you can do what you like today, but tonight is reserved for a good read. AdeptApril reminds us with this #ANSIart screen that it's World #Book night!
