Mistigram: I don’t want to miscategorize this piece of #ANSIart by the utterly unique Tricolore as an abstract, but it is named “L42” and I’m really not seeing them. Those three characters are really beside the point however, as this piece is awesome regardless! It was released in the M-9801 artpack collection 20 years ago this month. http://ift.tt/2CFySTa
Mistigram: from the MIST0117 artpack one year ago comes this riff on #ReneMagritte, part of @the_mythical_man’s series of “uninvited octopus” paintings, the mollusk crashing paintings by other famous painters - the work in this case being Magritte’s “The Son Of Man”. http://ift.tt/2CCxvEZ
Mistigram: from the MIST0117 artpack one year ago, this #teletext #Stormtrooper really put @carlos_teletextr on our radar. http://ift.tt/2CAnfgq
Mistigram: from MIST0117 one year ago, here’s a pleasantly granular low-rez @starstew portrait, entitled “Matt Rix”. http://ift.tt/2CAvWan
Mistigram: from the MIST0117 artpack collection, @horsenburger, the intellectual’s textmode artist, presented a #teletext portrait of #JohnBerger who died on this date last year. #WaysOfSeeing http://ift.tt/2lJO5YH
Mistigram: at the time, we felt that @horsenburger’s 2017 new year’s #teletext greetings were overly pessimistic, but with the benefit of hindsight it feels like he was right on the mark in every regard short of bring actually literally true. It was a good year for Mistigris but it kind of feels like we might be the only ones who can say that. http://ift.tt/2CqUQt1
Greetings and happy new year to all our computer art colleagues out there in the world! As we enter a new calendar year, it’s worth reflecting on just what it took for us to release computer artpacks on a monthly basis throughout the entirety of 2017. In short, it took computer art - hundreds, perhaps thousands of pieces of it. Much of our 2017 oeuvre was on borrowed time, curations from back catalogues we have exhausted. For us to continue pressing forward into 2018, we will need to be seeing more submissions from regular contributors. Come help us give you an excuse to make the computer art you want to see in the world!
