    This tool turns videos into ASCII pixel art. You can use your webcam feed or upload a video, then use the controls to adjust the colors, resolution, text style, etc. Github repo: https://github.com/collidingScopes/ascii It's built with javascript / html canvas. I'll be continuing to work on this, with the goal of improving performance (it can be laggy at high resolutions) and to also allow image input (turn an image into animated ASCII art). Please let me know of any feedback or suggestions!

    This demo allows you to recreate images using emojis. You can provide images or emojis to paint with, and it will attempt to recreate images using emojis. Much of the code is adopted from the Paint Transformer (https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.03798) paper. In this code base, I treat emojis like “brushes”, and use a Gumbel Softmax-based lookup to choose an emoji to paste to the canvas during training (similar to how attention uses a softmax to select keys during training).
