The matrix one is sweeter cos its all Javascript and not a movie. But still, the music ones are pretty impressive.

[Punky]

wow! thats proper good ! how did they manage to do that?

[tonicblue]

There are programs that will convert images into ascii characters by how dark each bit of the picture is. they just did it frame by frame. Probably wrote a program to do it quicker in batch.

[Bazzlad]

That's ace I reckon, and that's what matters.

[scottyman]

there's actually an ascii mpeg encoder on sourceforge - very nifty

[tonicblue]

cool I found some function some where to do an image I wanted to make a movie converter one but it looks like I wont hace to. T'would have taken bloody years. Souds like a hard bit of code because I have never worked with mpegs or any thing.
Is that what its called? "ascii mpeg encoder" cos I got a few Ideas for that
