Media-To-Ascii: Images/Videos to ascii art
I made a terminal media player that plays media files as ASCII art inside the terminal window!
Wrote a python script to convert video to ascii videos (with audio)
I started a little project to take videos, convert the frames to ascii, and overlay the original audio.
Still finalizing the code, but if anyone is interested I can share the code.
If anyone has any ideas to improve the effect, please let me know. Currently using a 70 character set for the ascii art.

CLI program for converting media files (images/videos) to ascii outputs either as text in the console, or an actual media file output.
I know there have been others before me, but I wanted it to be a little more sophisticated and actually encode media files as the output - meaning the program generates .mp4 or image files (.png/.jpg/etc.) with ascii art in the media itself. Makes for easier sharing and portability of results!
