This reminds me a little of the 404 page I made back in university (except it actually looks nice!) http://yawn.io/404 Fun fact: it doesn't have a hard coded bitmap it renders in your system font onto a canvas and reads the pixels out and then converts to text.

Removing the "mode=screensaver" parameter from the URL: >ertdfgcvb >Studio for design and code based in Lugano, Switzerland. >Specialized in procedural graphic design for screen and print; research and development, prototyping and implementation of interactive installations for exhibitions, stages and events.

At first I was like "what is this gonna be, a Chinese company that sells unbranded electronics on Amazon?" But no, it's the Swiss.

I was expecting it to be about some weird arm instruction.

They like mnemonics like this.

It's great to see simple non-productized playfulness on the internet again.

All the fun experiments on https://play.ertdfgcvb.xyz/ remind me of Yugo Nakamura's now-defunct site http://yugop.com/ from back in the early 2000s.

You can catch a little glimpse of his style with the bottom menu on https://web.archive.org/web/20040804050646/http://www.yugop...., but unfortunately the main body of the site (which was the best bit) doesn't work anymore because it was built with Flash.

Some of his current work with https://tha.jp/ still has a great organic fun feel to it.

It saddens me that a browser consumes one and a half CPU cores to render a measly ~300x60 characters at 30 fps. Manipulating even just text in the DOM has so much overhead... That's on Linux with the latest stable Chrome on hardware less than 2 years old.

Nonetheless, cool animation.

Fun fact: if you have gstreamer installed, you can use a pipeline like aasink to output any video as ascii-art. For example: gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! videoconvert ! aasink

Alternatively, 'mpv -vo caca'. https://mpv.io/manual/master/#video-output-drivers-caca

Worth mentioning that caca means poop in french
