This is not only my first attempt in working with the text/gemini format, but also my first attempt at hand-typed textmode art! (I've dabbled with interfaces like https://lvllvl.com before.) This post, candidly, is only being made because of a university assignment, but it's been really interesting to learn a bit about the gemini protocol and the community around it. This ASCII text I've made was jointly inspired by the Lagrange FIGlet wordmark and the back-to-basics attitude of gemini. In titling this HYPER_TEXT_1, I've afforded myself the opportunity to return to gemlog and make this a series. Type is such a fascinating medium to me, and this seems like a really liberating way to explore it further and share with others. In the off chance someone who isn't my classmate or professor stumbles across this, hopefully I've made a second or third or further entry and added links to some permanent art repository or portfolio like I've been meaning to make for ages.
