For some strange reason I've got well into ascii art... again... actually I know why it is: I came across some ascii animations of spiderman while browsing a forum and was so caught up with the possibilities that I thought I'd have to have a try. The above is from a beating heart animation available here.

I've submitted an animated gif of the webpage to dA and you can find it here, I used a similar technique on a piece of knotwork and you can find the deviantArt link here and the original here.
