I still remember the first time I saw a computer running Deluxe Paint.

What happens to the next generation of gullible idiots, when they ask their AI assistant to show them “william morris prints,” and those keywords have already been tainted by the sea of Etsy images? What about when more capable models can create even-more-convincing Morris prints, sans their telltale artefacts and slip-ups? When do the generated images become epistemologically indistinguishable from what Morris created?

ADA is a non-profit initiative that seeks to enable knowledge production about Arabic design and its history through a framework of collecting, digitizing, and displaying. ADA aims to provide an open and accessible platform for graphic items to the public to counter the parallel, inaccessible, and non-existent physical archive of the second half of the 20th century.

FLOSS text mode, pixel art, games, tools and music

Textmode is a broad term for art made with a monospaced font on a uniform grid.

Textmode encapsulates art like ASCII, ANSI, PETSCII and many others which have their own specific restrictions.

Since the J. Paul Getty Museum launched its Open Content program back in 2013, we’ve been featuring their efforts to make their vast collection of cultural artifacts freely accessible online. They’ve released not just digitized works of art, but also a great many art history texts and art books in general. Just this week, they announced an expansion of access to their digital archive, in that they’ve made nearly 88,000 images free to download on their Open Content database under Creative Commons Zero (CC0). That means “you can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission.”

This site contains 29257 unique* 88x31 buttons that I scraped from the GeoCities archives compiled by the incredible ARCHIVE TEAM before GeoCities' demise in late 2009.

Killed in an IDF in an air strike on Gaza in October 13, 2023.

Zagout gained a dedicated following on Instagram from all around the world. Viewers responded to her vibrant paintings of cityscapes and portraits that documented aspects of Palestinian culture; I wrote and illustrated this comic to honor Heba and her art. As a Palestinian artist myself, I wanted to offer a fraction of her life and what her work meant to the people of the world.

But in working on this comic, the only thought running through my mind was: How can anyone possibly capture the scale and severity of this destruction, this dehumanization? With every minute, more and more Palestinian martyrs become statistics. I recalled the words of the writer Khalil in Gaza (@khalilo1 …

On Georges Henein and his Art and Liberty Group.

He saw that the advances that had taken place in culture and art had not truly transformed the belief systems, values, frames of reference, attitudes, and ways of life of large sections of Egyptian society. He saw that the liberalism of the era remained largely confined to Egypt’s upper social strata.

Henein and his Art and Liberty Group colleagues also did not revere the previous generations that had led the march of Egyptian culture in previous decades. In his view, they had failed, and they had been complacent about their failure. They had chosen to live in a bubble, sustaining the false narrative that the society around them was developing and modernising and incorporating liberal attitudes, whereas in …

Meet the artists initiative.

We believe that original art stands out. This conviction drives us to create a direct channel between artists, art lovers, and collectors.

There are more artists than there are spaces to show their work.

The art world is complex but the market is archaic and exclusive. Access is rarely easy. Galleries take a large percentage off the artwork price. Online experience of viewing and buying art is impersonal. It can feel like buying an Ikea.

By gaining more space in creativity and freedom in directing the journeys of their artworks, artists will make more powerful art. Studios are the optimal place to see and experience them.

A notan is an artwork completed in black and white. It can inform how the artist will arrange elements such as shape, line and values in the final piece.

Lovely retro website of Victor Fakhoury showcasing his coptic icons. Lots of ancient Egyptian motifs.

In my thesis, I study Amiga ASCII text art. Amiga ASCII is a form of text art where the composition of letter characters set in the Amiga computer's font forms a two-dimensional representation or image. The Amiga scene is a subculture of computer enthusiasts that was popular in the 1990s. At its core are the logos and other visual materials created for BBS systems and the competitive rivalry among artists who create text art over their image-making prowess.

I delve into the creation of Amiga ASCII art and use it as a method to develop my visual expression. I define text art as one style of visual art, which includes ASCII art and its sub-genres, and I briefly describe the history of text art and ASCII art and …
