How in the html do they make motion ascii graphics???

Goofyy- each "frame" is loaded as a separate HTML layer. Some simple Javascript just loops through each frame and toggles its visibility. I'm guessing that the actual content is the output of one of many movie-to-ascii converters floating around (Apple, for example, includes one as a demo for QT movies in its dev tools). Primitive, but effective.

Goofyy: aalib. It's supported by the Gimp, MPlayer, and you can even play Quake in it.

What MKUltra said:
  • Apple's original
  • The Ted Turner colorized version
  • The experimental remake by a loose consortium of auteurs

    • Sorry, this is a MacOSXFilter response.
