New ASCII for PC!
I’ve released a new ASCII-thing in Impure 85! This time I’ve tried to work with code page 437, popular on the IBM PC. It has different characters than the Amiga, such as the useful block gradients: ▓ ▒ ░. The font is designed differently, so for example the / and \ don’t connect to each other. Boooo! I think I wrote a bit about the differences in this paper.
Anyway, this has been added to my MEGA ASCII PAGE where you can go and scroll into the abyss!
New ASCII stuff
I released a new ASCII colly at Revision (the biggest demo party around) and it came in 2nd place in the ASCII/ANSI/PETSCII compo. Watch on asciiarena.se.
Nothing but Impure
This one was released in Impure#83 and is also available on aSCIIaRENA.

Double Trouble
New ANSCII Collection
I released a new collection of ANSI/ASCII graphics at the Edison party and it placed #1 in the ASCII/ANSI/PETSCII competition! Some of my friends

GOTO22 Glitches
I looked at Goto22 on a BBS (The Yard) in a silly way (V for view file right in the BBS) and it looked like this. Big success! Click to enhance.
Goto22 – ANSCII Carnival
A while back I released a collection of text graphics called Goto20. It was really well received at ASCII Arena, and now I’ve made another one: Goto22. They both use this rather unusual style that is wedged right in between two traditionally conflicting scenes for text graphics: Amiga ASCII and PC ANSI. Basically, I’ve chosen a bastard style that nobody is supposed to like but damnit it’s winning people over, one by one. We call it ANSCII. ANSCIIIIII!! Want to join the movement? I’ve used Blocktronics’ Moebius which is available for Win, Mac and Linux.
I’ve actually joined the ASCII group diViNE stYleRs and this thing of mine was first released on their Amiga BBS, The Yard. Releasing things first on a BBS is the shit. Ok yeah whatever.

GlitchNES 2022
GlitchNES is a NES-software by NO CARRIER from 2009 that works like a real-time glitch VJ tool on the NES. A new version was just released and it includes graphics by lots of talented pixel artists, and actually me. I chose to make a pretend tracker in PETSCII to see that glitched on the NES. It seemed blasphemous enough..
Order it here ($ goes to good causes) and get more info here.
glitchNES 2022 is out! This new, cartridge-only release is a fundraiser to support racial justice and community arts initiatives in the USA. Big shout out to @drOMGp , @InfiniteNesLive, and all the guest artists for their support. https://t.co/EZY1LRLhGX pic.twitter.com/GpAps848nF
