Spent a fair amount of the last two days fixing the basic color ascii generator I uploaded on saturday. It’s much better now, and can now handle RGBWCMYK, which gives me a few more colors to work with, which is nice.

With it, I managed to crank out this ascii version of one of my favorite album covers, I’m In Your Mind Fuzz, by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.

I’ve also tested the algorithm on various scenes from Initial D, and a few pieces of actual art, most notably The Wave Off Kanagawa, with some success. This is where I’ll likely leave the project for a while, until Vinny and I can get together and work on it for real.
