Browsing the Wired website is much more fulfilling experience than reading the magazine, for some reason. All the little contests are pretty great, like this ASCII art contest; the winner of which has apparently never tried the medium before. I call shenanigans.
There's no way that was his first piece. And among the numerous (twelve) masterpieces, you can find two professional artists, both of whom submitted their posters for Radiohead and Battles.
But that's all besides the point. Someone did Star Wars: A New Hope in ASCII art format! Line for line! It's impressive! Up until about halfway through, when you realize you just sat through a monochrome shaggy dog story that ends with a joke that should have died quite a while ago.
