Mistigris computer artsMistodon: if you're not afraid of a little #teletext (... or if you find it absolutely terrifying!) you will also find a wide selection of seasonally spooky illustrations in this #semigraphics medium in the horrific new #Halloween-y MIST1024 artpack collection.
Mistodon: here is a sampling of some of the various #textmode and #semigraphics art formats and styles in use in the (frankly terrifying) new MIST1024 artpack collection, including #PETSCII, #teletext, #ASCII art and #ANSIart.
OblomovOK I had the distinct impression that there were now tools that could “rasterize” images to characters (similar to #AAlib and #libcaca), but with more aggressive usage of #Unicode characters to achieve better results. I have tried #img2txt from libcaca with the #utf8 option but it's still not satisfactory compared to what I remember, even for grayscale, so … which one was it?
Also #TIL that this is called #semigraphics or #pseudographics
