Let's take a
moment to honor Bob Bemer, the man who, among other things, invented
the ASCII character system, named COBOL, put the backslash into
mainstream use, and developed what became the ESC key. He died
yesterday at 84 after a battle with cancer. Both technologies -- or at
least the technology and the concept, I guess -- have changed the way
we compute. If it weren't for people like Bemer, relative dabblers
like myself wouldn't have had such great hobbies and careers these
last few decades.
Bob Bemer, we give you a hearty :wq! May your compile be without
error, and may your shell be always 80 characters. ^D

Someone has translated Quentin Tarantino's
Kill Bill Vol. 1
into a series of ASCII text images. Uma's looking unusually thin here,
as if she were -- I don't know, a stick figure. But: brilliant.

03/19/2005 02:22 AMWhile tidying up some files on my hard drive — slow day today
— I bumped into a copy of the ASCII
Matrix movie clip that we wrote about a while back (was it really
that long ago?) After watching it a couple of times I got to wondering
where it came from (did I mention it was a slow day?)
After a little digging I came across romanm.ch; very clever site design,
all in monospaced text, of course. It's not clear whether this guy
came up with this work or not (I'm not sure what language this guy
speaks, but thankfully most of the menu items are pretty
understandable) but some of it, especially the "Animationen" is amazing. Check
out Spiderman as an example. The ASCII Matrix movie clip
is there under Movies, along with three other Matrix
clips, and clips from several other titles, like Spiderman, Ice Age,
Terminator, X-Men &: Stargate. He's even made a clip of one of my
favorite animated shorts, Pixar's "For
the Birds".
I'm not sure how he's made these ASCII movies; my best guess is
that he used something like ASCII Generator to convert
one frame at a time into text. Or maybe it's magic.
Another neat toy that romanm.ch links to is an ASCII sig line
generator; key in whatever text you'd like to have ASCII-ized,
customize it, and plug it into your e-mail signatures.
Now, back to work!
