Mistigram: thanks to our colleagues in Impure for bringing our attention to the fact that the @sixteen_colors gallery display of our old MIST0822 artpack collection was recently used to illustrate an article in Finland's @mikrobitti magazine by Kaj Laaksonen and Samuli Leppala on the subject of #ANSIart. This is funny for a few reasons, but it's always nice to have an opportunity to share our notable creative work with wider print audiences. (Thanks to @littlebitspace for finding a specimen in the wild to document!)



Mistigram: if you were in the Pacific Northwest in the '90s, as @nicheinterests was, the incredible #fish-themed art of Alaskan artist @ray.troll was everywhere. The recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection was the perfect excuse for Cthulu to garishly adapt one of Ray's more surreal scenes into the #ANSIart graphics format the home computers of that era would have been using, because unbelievably we have no plans yet to release a fish-themed artpack. (Fish Worship, for the record, is never wrong, and is a protected right under the Constitution.)
