Karsten Schmidt<p>Passively participating in <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Genuary2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Genuary2024</span></a> — Day 9 ASCII. In summer 2022 I released ASCII-SCAPE, a textmode remix of my earlier C-SCAPE co-evolving multi-cellular automata simulation piece. Technially, it should been called UTF-SCAPE, but hey (some variations actually are strictly ASCII only).</p><p>The piece uses 1200+ handpicked rule combinations (based on custom rules &amp; neighborhood configurations I generated/searched/collected/curated with my own tools over the past 20+ years), 32 character sets, 40 color themes, all creating literally billions of possible combinations... The piece also allows recording &amp; exporting chunks of the simulation as plain text files (just press X to start/end recording)</p><p><a href="https://art.thi.ng/ascii-scape/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">art.thi.ng/ascii-scape/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a><br>(Reload for new random combination!)</p><p>The following keyboard shortcuts are available:</p><p>- space : toggle simulation updates (pause/play)<br>- r : randomize environment<br>- x : start/stop recording<br>- f : toggle scroll speed (fast/slow)</p><p>More info about both sibling projects at the links below:</p><p>ASCII-SCAPE<br><a href="https://www.fxhash.xyz/generative/16205" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">fxhash.xyz/generative/16205</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>C-SCAPE<br><a href="https://www.fxhash.xyz/generative/13992" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">fxhash.xyz/generative/13992</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/GenerativeArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GenerativeArt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/EvolutionaryArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EvolutionaryArt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ASCIIArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ASCIIArt</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Art</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/TextMode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TextMode</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/CellularAutomata" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CellularAutomata</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/Simulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Simulation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/ThingUmbrella" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ThingUmbrella</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/TypeScript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TypeScript</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.thi.ng/tags/FXHash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FXHash</span></a></p>
