In garish, fauvist colours, a fish floats above a crowd of fervently outstretched hands reaching out from the sleeves of suit jackets, shooting multicoloured streaks and lightning bolts out of its fishy form.  The top of the screen states the subject: FISH WORSHIP, and at the bottom the question is asked: IS IT WRONG?

Mistigram: if you were in the Pacific Northwest in the '90s, as [personal profile] nicheinterests was, the incredible #fish-themed art of Alaskan artist [Bad username or site: 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.)

In front of a forest scene, an the symmetrical face of an owl gazes wisely back at the viewer.

Mistigram: when you split a walnut in half, the interior structure of the shell can resemble an #owl face. I expect that's why this #textmode composition by [profile] illarterate, which won 3rd place in the 2023 #ATASCII art compo, is named "Walnut the Owl". It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection.

A pink-outlined dancer twirling en pointe in the dark gracefully lifts one arm up and the other out, while tracers describe the spiral trajectory of her passage.

Mistigram: this is one of two #ASCIIart illustrations of dancers drawn by Mozz, inspired by the stroboscopic photography of the late Gjon Mili. It was included in the recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection.

A fierce clean-faced warrior clad in golden armour stares at the viewer in front of a burst of violet energy.

A propeller-driven airplane, looking very small against the vastness of the blue sky, releases a smoke trail as it dives down toward the glow of the sunset, showing its belly to the crowd.

Mistigram: to you, it's just an airplane. But the artist [profile] _n1tr0n has actually flown it, and describes it as "Nancy, tail number 61672, is a 1950s era radial engine powered Nanchang CJ-6 fighter-trainer built by the Chinese Air Force." What can I say, every #ANSIart screen is worth a thousand words! This piece was included in the recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection.

A pink hummingbird zooms, a blur, across a white background.

Gothic calligraphed letters, themselves formed from fixed-width letters, numbers punctuation marks and other such symbols, spell out the lower-case words delete your acc[oun]t in white against a black background.

Mistigram: this is the only part of a larger suite of somewhat hostile #teletext #ASCIIart typographical works by [profile] atonalosprey that we managed to include in the recent unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection, but under some circumstances it remains excellent advice. #deleteyouraccount

Various displays and readouts attached to a computer indicate the status of numerous furbots and virtual pets, whose physiology and care instructions are described on notes and blackboards in the laboratory.

Mistigram: at once incredibly cude and vaguely menacing, this detailed #pixelart (Pixboard?) scene of Furbots and VPets (Furbies and Tamagotchi with pathos) by [profile] adelfaure is titled "Professor Smith's Menagerie". It was included in the new unthemed MIST0624 artpack collection.
