ASCII

ONE CODE TO RULE THEM ALL

Artwork – ASCII Art

ASCII Characters and Binary code…. got to love this stuff.

Back in the day, ASCII was our only form of communication. In the late 90’s beepers and rudimentary multi-key cell phones could only text the old way. I would spend hours creating the best coded language to share with friends and this chart of characters became art.

For you younger folks out there, who may not know what I’m writing about – “ASCII, is a standard data-encoding format for electronic communication between computers. ASCII assigns standard numeric values to letters, numerals, punctuation marks, and other characters used in computers. In full: American Standard Code for Information Interchange.” – ASCII – Per Britannica. Take it or leave it. We use it for art… and pictographs.

Those days are in the past, I know. But it was still, fun while it lasted. Here’s a list of all the characters and binary codes to inspire your next piece of art. Don’t be shy, don’t keep your art to yourself! Share it with others.

RAW ASCII (has spacing issues, we know… #$#$@ browser… may repost if it doesn’t work)

ASCII Examples

Code Chart

War Of The Worlds

Dwight

Oh, and before I forget, we aren’t talking about generated artwork… we are talking about the good, the bad and the unusual character art. My personal favorite is the local “Skunk Ape”, “Grassman” or “Alien ‘Big Foot’ Hunter”. Just a few I recall from back in the day. Rules were broken below when ‘creating’ these ASCII images. ((SHOUT OUT)) to the artist who converted these TUX and Dwight images to ASCII. The TUX ‘piece’ may need to find it’s way onto a t-shirt or hat.

Tree Study

A Season Of Change

Tree Study

Artwork – Tree Study Series

Changing seasons, progression of time. A Tree study.

We watch as branches sway in the breeze, winter is coming . Snow covers their barren branches, with no leaves for what seems like months. Out of the window, we see the sun, and we follow this specimen through time a passage of time, as seasons change.

We watch its growth after a tremendously long winter pause. New life emerges in the spring, followed by a spring trim. In the warm glow of late day, branches stretch, and bounce, pushing out their bark and leaves for more sun light.

More coming soon, please check back later. Be sure to view my latest sketches and artwork on X @salleetech for progression photos. You can also explore other pieces and artwork in the artwork category.

SPACE PENS

Buy Yourself A Fisher Space Pen

FISHER® SPACE PENS

Gear – Fisher Space Pen

Need a pen? Does anyone have a pen? Please, can I borrow a pen? ((Oh, what is this I see…)) A Fisher SPACE PEN? What’s going on? Is this some kind of alien artifact?

Yes, indeed it is a Fisher Space Pen. You can get yours here, just click the Fisher hyperlink and you’re all set! Moving on, this may increase my bounce rates, but who’s keeping track at the point? Let’s take a closer look, first, let’s purchase one! There are many ways to buy these pens, but the manufacturer’s website works best for me. We purchased ours at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex. Easy-peasy. One thing to note, Fisher also makes great pens with emblems, NASA Anniversary or Commemorative Pens and more. We choose the basic one, for a full list, check out the NASA Fisher collection. Heck, I should’ve shared photos of the pen, so the Fisher collection shopping experience will have to suffice for now.

Fisher Bullet Pen

It’s rather small, about half the size of a normal pen, textured, black. You can open the pen by sliding the front cap off the back half and replacing the cap on the back end. This will create a full sized writing instrument.

I use these pens for all my ‘writing/drawing’ needs including writing, drawing, shading, point/pointillism, sketch lines, home improvement (tasks, opening boxes, and random drone part bags). open boxes, random drone part bags). These writing instruments were designed to be used in outer space! Need I say more? Check out images on spacepen.com

Anthropomorphic – Dali

Interesting Take on Reality

Anthropomorphic – Dali

Lab Work – Dali, Let’s cover the Anthropomorphic – Dali

Get Some More Dali…

Dali, Salvador Dali, the Spanish Surrealist painter and printmaker, more infamously known for his surreal expressions and fanciful illusions. I must admit that I am a fan of this work. While I wouldn’t say I’m fanatical, I am intrigued by this works. His work breaks the boundaries of reality and delves into a surreal world that is uniquely Salvador Dali. While studying Art History in college, I delved deeper into Dali’s works as I explored my own surrealist illusions and study of colors. I purchased a few table-top books of his works and some small print books for reference. My influence comes more from the internet than from archival hardbound books. The surreal, dream-like, and fanciful elements in my own work are a direct reflection of Dali’s influence. He truly is a brain teaser. In addition to Dali, other artists like Parkes (modern surrealist; fantasy); even Larry Elmore have influenced my work as well. They are all incredibly skilled with an eye for detail and light. If you have the chance, I recommend taking a look at some of Dali’s work online. Check out pieces like “The Anthropomorphic Cabinet” (Anthropomorphic – Dali) from 1936.
