MIST0625/BLIPPYPIXEL-POSTER
Mistigram: many years ago, @blippypixel was in possession of a colourful framed poster of some geometrical computing algorithm’s output. It was hung proudly above his sofa, and one day for no apparent reason it fell off the wall and was destroyed in splintered wood and broken glass when it crashed into the floor. After 10 years of many false starts and fruitful distractions, this year he finally succeeded at rolling his own reproduction of the doomed poster using the #BBCMicro’s Acorn Graphics Extension ROM — the entire reason he got into making computer art to begin with. (That poster has a lot to answer for!) This piece was included in the new unthemed MIST0625 artpack collection.
MIST0625/BLIPPYPIXEL-GRAF9
Mistigram: this is but one of @blippypixel’s suite of tablet-fingerpainted #BBCMicro high resolution graphics adaptations of actual #graffiti works seen out and about in London recently. (We shared this one first for traffic cone-related reasons.) It was included in the new unthemed MIST0625 artpack collection!
MIST0625 graffiti mosaic
Mistigram: this summer @blippypixel has been going out into public spaces in order to practice his computer art making, tablet-fingerpainting #BBCMicro reproductions of #graffiti pieces he finds thrown up on walls. Many of these sketches are included in the new, unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection, and here are a sampling of them!
