Mistigram: this #pixelart screen by Pixelartfortheheart celebrates Team Ico's 2005 PlayStation2 game #ShadowOfTheColossus. It was included in our video games-themed MIST0921 artpack collection.

Mistigram: this GameFAQs-style #ASCIIart portrait of #Raz from #Psychonauts was made by GFascii and included in the video games-themed MIST0921 artpack collection released last year.

Mistigram: #DeepInTheCaribbean... congrats to Return to Monkey Island for winning the esteemed PC Game of the Year award at the Golden Joysticks. Keeping the mood going, here's the iconic #MeleeIsland vista from the intro to 1990's #SecretOfMonkeyIsland, drawn in #teletext by @Horsenburger and included in last year's video games-themed MIST0921 artpack collection.

Mistigram: this #teletext screen, drawn by Uglifruit, nominally celebrates a milestone of automobile travel in the UK, foregrounding a fun bit of trivia to delight VLC fans and old denizens of TABNet: the first #TrafficCone in Britain! This piece was included in the MIST1120 artpack collection released two years ago this month.

Mistigram: this #pixelart tangle of gigantic wyrm heads, some combination of a dragon and a hydra, likely spells bad news for the campers at bottom right. It was drawn by Chuppixel and included in our MIST1118 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

Mistigram: this is a highly characteristic specimen of piquANSI's #asemicwriting, enshrined into #asciiart box-drawing characters. This piece was included in our MIST1118 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

Mistigram: this #teletext screen -- part abstract composition, part architectural floor-plan layout -- was drawn by Jellica Jake and included in the MIST1118 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

Mistigram: possibly as close to "ANSI Academy" as we're going to get, here's an important public building, seemingly from the 8bitMUSH at ansiart.com, drawn in #ANSIart (maybe probably #FANSI actually) by Sassafras. This piece was included in the MIST1118 artpack collection released four years ago this month.

Mistigram: I misspoke -- I said I'd be sharing three Illarterate #teletext screens on the #MaxHeadroomIncident of signal hijacking that took place 35 years ago today in the Chicago area, but though he has drawn a third, instead here's a new one I caught from Teletextr, in which #MaxHeadroom, like some ghost in the shell, eerily emerges from the Ceefax frontpage headlines, glitching everything he touches. "I still see the X!"

Mistigram: here, for the first time in #ATASCII (the #textmode character set of #Atari 8-bit computers) in one of our artpacks, Illarterate revisits the #MaxHeadroomIncident of pirate broadcasting that took place 35 years ago today, ironically playing on the #MaxHeadroom character's then-role as a Coca-Cola brand ambassador. This screen was included in last month's MIST1022 artpack collection.

Mistigram: a disconcerting image, this is a monochrome #teletext reproduction of a frame from the #MaxHeadroomIncident, an unsolved pirate broadcast that took place 35 years ago today with the help of a sheet of corrugated metal & a rubber #MaxHeadroom mask. Illarterate is a huge celebrant of this #cyberpunk moment in history and this is the first of three images by him on the subject we will be sharing with you today. This was included in the MIST1120 artpack collection.

Mistigram: this minimalist #pixelart portrait of principled hacker #LauriLove was drawn by The Elk and included in the MIST1119 artpack collection released three years ago this month.

Mistigram: this elegant and simple #ASCIIart #butterfly scene was created by littlebitspace and included in the MIST1120 artpack collection released two years ago this month.

Mistigram: this free and easy #ANSIart logo for Javist's "Tantalized Dreams" (tdr) BBS was drawn by Quip and included in our third anniversary artpack collection released a quarter-century ago.

Mistigram: this #BBCMicro hirez graphics screen by Blippypixel is titled "Wilderness", which may characterise the rolling hills below but really omits the cosmic wildness wheeling overhead. It was included in the MIST1120 artpack collection released two years ago this month.

For our new social media toeholds, our recent sharing of the closing screens of our recent mega-wide #ANSIart scroller will necessarily be less impactful without the context of all the pieces that came before it . So here they are at a glance, presented as a big square! Art by the #Textmode Friends, who this time around are Rhoq7, Adel Faure, Batfeula, Polyducks and LDA.

Mistigram: congratulations everyone, we reached the end of last month's monstrous Textmode Friends #ANSIart jam, ever scrolling further to the right until everyone ran out of time to add any more. This Rather Conclusive Celtic knotwork-inspired illuminated dragon (and an entire patch of radical ASCII jack 'o lanterns) were drawn by Adel Faure and Textmode Friend chief instigator Polyducks. This piece was included in the spooky MIST1022 artpack collection.

#introduction Greetings from Mist! We started releasing artpacks in the #BBS PC underground in '94, full of #ANSIart, #ASCIIart, #MODmusic etc., probing the early Internet (1st homepage on Geocities, many hours spent on IRC) but drying up by the turn of the century in the BBS/CLI to Web/GUI transition... stewing in nostalgia until a reunion for our 20th in 2014 ... we got back releasing artpacks again -- now w/ vintage #textmode art fellow traveler forms such as #PETSCII, #ShiftJIS & #teletext!
