<p>the newest <a href="http://pc.textmod.es/pack/impure67/" target="_new">impure artpack #67</a> has the incarnation of a conversion we had on irc. historically amiga collys are all vertical and lack color. since impure is already viewed as a "modern" crew for releasing in color and files wider than 80 columns... we decided why not make a modern colly?! and what's the perfect subject for a really really wide ansi? a train covered in graffiti of course!</p><p><a href="https://0w.nz/impure-train.png"><img src="/ui/img/blog/x0-train.png" alt="x0 - impure train preview"></a></p>

<blockquote> A.M.i.S.H or Ansi Masters In Straw Hats (pennsylvania german: amisch, german: amische) a group of traditionalist ansi artists with pennsylvania dutch origins. they are closely related to, but distinct from, blocktronics, impure and other "english" art groups. the AMiSH are known for simple living, dope ansi skills, and reluctance to adopt many conveniences of modern technology. </blockquote> <p>tl;dr - amish is a joke acronym that <a href="http://pc.textmod.es/~misfit/" target="_new">misfit</a> and <a href="http://pc.textmod.es/~filth/" target="_new">filth</a> came up with in the 90s. but once i met up w/ them we decided that with all three of us representing the western pa area, we should make their dreams a reality!</p> <p>here's a few of my subs to our <a href="http://pc.textmod.es/pack/amish-0717/" target="_new">inaugural artpack</a>:<p> <p><a href="https://0w.nz/x0-amish_banner.png" target="_new"><img src="/ui/img/blog/x0-amish_banner.png" alt="x0 - amish banner">

<p><img src="/ui/img/blog/demosplash2.png" alt="x0 - demosplash"></a></p><p>since joining the textmode art scene, i've made lots of new friends. <a href="http://www.blocktronics.org" target="_new">blocktronics</a> and <a href="http://www.impure.nl" target="_new">impure</a> have both been more art collectives than a release groups. seeing the art other members are working on is very inspiring and, for the most part, the criticism is constructive. over time i've become friends with misfit and filth, all members of blocktronics who live in pretty close proximity to each other. this year we decided to meet up at pittsburgh's local demoscene event <a href="http://www.demosplash.org" target="_new">demosplash</a>, and had a blast!<p>
