ASCII Art

Introduction:
For this assignment, I was inspired by the ASCII art in front of the IM lab, so I tried to create such generative art.

Coding and Process
For the process, I first started looking into different possible projects that could be done using data visualization and generative texts. I really found this project of drawing images through different ASCII characters. So at first, I had to learn what is a pixel array, understand how it works, and use it to give different colors to the letters at one pixel. Once I understood how it worked, then it was me just experimenting around and playing with texts.

Final Project

Reflection and future improvements
For future purposes, I can have something interactive and live and could engage with the audience.
