In previous years, I have posted detailed walkthroughs of my entries for the last two editions of the International Teletext Art Festival. They didn’t necessarily need to be explored in such detail, but because of semi-obscure references to things like little-known island Rockall and the largely forgotten Good Times virus, I felt the need to […]

Text Mode is Text-TV is Video Text is Teletext: A chat with Chiptune Master Goto80
With the Finland leg of the 2013 International Teletext Art Festival underway, Illarterate decided to quiz participating artist Anders Carlsson on… everything but teletext art. Well, he is a fairly prominent figure in the world of chiptune music, at least in his homeland of Sweden, so to dwell on such a small part of his […]

With recognition brings pressure, a niggling “you have two […]
Teletext graphics now on At the Races Text
A selection of my teletext graphics can currently be viewed on page 106 of the At The Races teletext service. Here’s a couple of pieces to whet your appetite, but you’ll have to go and look for yourself to see what other stuff I’ve been working on. 😉 Oh no, I can’t get analogue teletext […]
My submissions for International Teletext Art Festival 2012: Walkthrough
I first heard about International Teletext Art Festival 2012 through the Teletext Mailing List a couple of months back, but the desire to have works published via public teletext first arose some five years ago, during the research stages of my Pixel is Power dissertation.
