Mistigram: though we mostly focus on releasing science fiction-themed art in May, due to the interests of its mastermind, @kirkman, who provided most of its showpieces, there was quite a bit of it in the IGNITE01 collection of multimedia #AtariST #IGS (#InstantGraphicsAndSound) works we shared last year on New Year's Eve. Because scientific progress goes "boink", this one is a tribute to Bill Watterson's beloved #CalvinAndHobbes comic strip.
The sky is clear, the breeze is strong. A perfect day to make the long sea voyage to Mythyn. You prepare your galley, hire a crew of sailors, and cast off. But a few hours into your trip, the dreaded words appear: “Thou seest rippling waters…” Sea serpent? Giant squid? Something’s out there, and it’s […]
Please check out this deep dive into a relatively unknown BBS game from the 1990s with absolutely fantastic pixel art.
Joseph Pulitzer. My contribution to the latest @blocktronics artpack. https://16colo.rs/pack/blocktronics-blocky-horror/
Stages of making my ANSI portrait of Joseph Pulitzer. This will appear in the upcoming October @blocktronics pack.
In December, I created a new ANSI animation for the holidays called “Star Trek: The Trouble With The Rangifer Tarandus”, which was released in Blocktronics’ “Darker Image #2” artpack. Here’s a video version of the ANSImation: But (as always), the best way to view this is to use SyncTerm to connect to my BBS, Guardian […]
A little behind-the-scenes on the ANSImation I made last Christmas.
This is a video version of my Star Trek / Christmas ANSImation, “The Trouble With The Rangifer Tarandus.” Mostly an excuse to show off my cool sparkly ANSI transporter effect. The original ANSI file was released in @blocktronics‘ “Darker Image #2″ artpack.
ANSI art version of Five Iron Frenzy’s “Quantity Is Job 1” album cover, for @blocktronics most recent “B-SiDES” artpack. Original cover by @dougtennapel.
ANSI art version of Audio Adrenaline's “Underdog” album cover, for @blocktronics most recent “B-SiDES” artpack.
When Star Wars debuted in 1977, the first sequence audiences took in was the iconic opening crawl: a wall of yellow text rolling up the screen, shrinking toward a vanish point in the distance. This crawl was George Lucas’ homage to the old Flash Gordon serials of the 1930s (which inspired many other parts of […]
How do you make an opening crawl in ANSI?
I want to push boundaries. That’s what the original Star Wars films did. Industrial Light & Magic revolutionized special effects with novel new techniques for motion control and amazing model work. When I work on ANSI projects now, I try to think about ways to do things in ANSI that weren’t possible in the 1990s […]

I actually made it into this pack!
Thought it would be fun to re-envision @fivethirtyeight ‘s Election Forecast map as a retro BBS door from 1992. Telnet to my BBS if you’d like to give it a try: telnet://guardian.synchro.net.
In the spirit of tomorrow night's debate, I played some Atari Jaguar NBA Jam with a team of Hillary Clinton and Dennis Rodman (Rodman was the best Trump stand-in I could come up with… they both have crazy hair and a propensity to create controversy)
My daughter learned to ride her bike this summer, so I decided to try drawing my first real ANSI portrait. It came out better than I thought it would! This GIF shows the big steps in the process (but omits the many iterations of eyes and face I tried).
By Josh Renaud • [email protected] When "Star Trek" premiered Sept. 8, 1966, it promised a five-year mission to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations.
I don’t often write for the P-D, but when I do, it’s usually about Star Trek.
