earlier this week, Anders Carlsson and I 
released a web version of a paper we co-authored about a year ago. the paper was 
included in the Computer Art Congress 3, which took place in Paris last Nov.

we thought it would be a good idea to make the paper available online, in a format that 
perhaps fits a little more closely with the topic, than a print journal (although seeing in print is really cool too).

to me one of the major benefits of this version of our paper, is that it can link directly to the artists etc
i think that makes a lot more sense. we did some minor edits to the text and added a lot more pics too!!!!!!!

the paper tries to tie together some threads re:histories of ASCII Art and their relationship to some of the
practices that engage text-based expressions in contemporary visual culture, while considering some future
directions or considerations. when i have more time, i'm definitely interested in writing more about this topic

questions or comments - let us know!!!!
