It's been there. There used to be a web version as an animated .gif, IIRC, but I don't remember for sure. I guess the original's online in a Java applet at http://www.asciimation.co.nz/ - for those behind a firewall which won't allow telnet, etc... Don't build a jet-powered beer cooler in your NZ garage without a fire extenguisher. :) The original: slashdot.org/articles/99/05/22/1341217.shtml The source opens (telnet linked in the comments): http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=03/04/29/0037216 --Danny

People have too much time on their hands. Amazing what > masterpieces are produced by bored misdirected enthusiasm. The ASCII art is produced by a program. It turns any movie into live ASCII art ;-) The program is called aaxine and it is a part of most Linux distributions. From the manual page: "aaxine is for those who don't have a high end video card, but just want to watch DVDs on their good old vt100 ;-)" You can watch a DVD movie rendered on a terminal if you really want to ...

Amazing what > masterpieces are produced by bored misdirected enthusiasm Yes, it is ;-)) http://www.we-make-money-not-art.com/archives/007756.php Wish I'd taped the news item to make a video file, never mind Not mentioned is the cost, which I'm sure he said could be up to NZ$10,000 - $12,000. Hmmm, pass

From the manual page: Actually, this is an old thing that was done mostly "by hand" - not from the real video footage. However, I've found that if you get a large enough frame buffer-based text display, the aalib display looks pretty good from a little ways away. The eMovix project uses mplayer to display video on a bootable CD, and one of the rendering options is aalib (yes, you too can link your video program against aalib). There's lots of geeky cool involved with the eMovix thing. :) --Danny

I hear that the "new" funny Star Wars thing is that some guys put the entire script into AT&T NaturalVoice and created an audio version of the movie completely done with computerized voices. Some people have too much time on their hands. ;-) Nate

It is simple heater, Q = Cv T, Q = lamda * dT, two functions will define all thermal action Q = W*t will describe eletrical heater. that all. witch one need T to be control, either in contant or sequence, pid control will be needed. {Original Message removed}
