Your camera feed or a video file, translated into characters in real time. Each cell's luminance maps to an ASCII ramp — dense characters for dark, sparse for bright. Gradient mode maps luminance through multi-stop color ramps matching the Generative Geometry experiment.
Drag points on the contrast curve to reshape the tonal response. Load a video file as an alternative source. Hit record to capture up to 10 seconds of the ASCII output as a WebM video.
