    Like City Lights, Receding: ANSi Artwork and the Digital Underground, 1985-2000 Michael A. Hargadon A Thesis in the Department of History Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (History) Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada March 2011 © Michael A. Hargadon, 2011 CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY School of Graduate Studies This is to certify that the thesis prepared By: Michael A. Hargadon Entitled: Like City Lights, Receding: ANSi Artwork and the Digital Underground, 1985-2000 and submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (History) complies with the regulations of the University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. Signed by the final examining committee: Dr. Matthew Penney Chair Dr. Norman Ingram Examiner Dr. Rachel Berger Examiner Dr. Elena Razlogova Supervisor Approved by Dr. Norman Ingram Chair of Department or Graduate Program Director 20 Dean of Faculty ABSTRACT Like City Lights, Receding: ANSi Artwork and the Digital Underground, 1985-2000 Michael A. Hargadon The rise of the Internet has obscured knowledge of the modes of mass online interaction that preceded it. Foremost amongst these was the Bulletin Board System (BBS), whose unique technological constraints encouraged the development of the art form known as ANSI. Through an examination of the economic paradigm shift that permitted mass adoption of microcomputers, the technological operating environment of the 1980s and 1990s and the ethos of the software piracy scene of that era, this thesis explains why this species of art took the form that it did, why artists chose to express themselves in this medium, and how ANSI defined the aesthetics of the online world between 1985 and the turn of the century.
