50 years of the good stuff!

If you're not actually in Finland you can still see some of my #Teletext art that's on YLE's Teletext service celebrating 50 years of Teletext here ... https://t.co/VE7C2yVcMY #teletextart #pixelart

Blending technologies and art here... some #teletext #3bit #pixelart. A Teletext (1974) rendition of this QR Code (1994) art (2012) based on Rob Pike's photograph (~1980?) of PJW, done here in 2024.

Happy 50th #Teletext #Teletext50 #3bit #pixelart. It was lovely to be at @computermuseum for the celebrations this weekend. #blockparty

[Andy Jenkinson @andyuglifruit]

@sdedition Bobbins indeed. I was especially looking forward to disc 3 for the great (royal zonophone) sci-fi ep tracks which I don't think have been released on CD before.

More Lego minifigure + watercolour painting efforts.

Having #ZXSpectrum fun with a Laser Etched design

Experiments with digital drawing (using a Wacom tablet, and Krita software). Having "undo" makes a heck of a difference... you don't get that with pencil on paper!

[Andy Jenkinson @andyuglifruit]

A couple of Lego minifigure pieces I had fun doing.

[Andy Jenkinson @andyuglifruit]

Great to see the Bar Menu at #emf2024 had a Teletext menu. (And complete service). Great stuff @mscroggs

Dymo labelling is very very satisfying. And now I've no excuse for accidentally accidentally switching to "Détaché Bowed" when I wanted "Staccato".

Some #Teletext #Pixelart promoting my crap #ZXSpectrum game!

[Andy Jenkinson @andyuglifruit]

A #ZXSpectrum extremely #lofi music thing using the loading screech as a tune. https://t.co/Y4RqD5Mxsw This took maximum effort for very little reward.
