I made a Nuke script to turn video into ASCII characters (limited to easily type-able ones. No extended sets).

In order to pick the characters, I actually counted the number of pixels for each in the DOS font, and ordered them respectively.

I only used seven characters plus blank, resulting in eight shades of lumenance. This was filmed off of an Apple Lisa CRT with a 4-point star filter at 45°.

The sound was run through the "Lo-Fi" filter that Pro Tools has.

Enjoy.
