Blocktronics ANSI Piece

Here I'll cut and paste an email from RaDMaN (founder of the ACiD art group I was a part of as a teenager in the 90's) to introduce a really cool ANSi collaboration in development:

There is an ANSI group called Blocktronics, they're the only persistently active ANSI group of the 21st century.

They're doing a tribute to ACiD in their next pack, and the name of that artpack is "Blocktronics: ACiD Trip".  It will be released the end of October.

 We have a PabloDraw server up.   I don't think you've ever used PabloDraw, so I will explain it like this: Imagine an IRC chat room plus a 10,000 line ANSI/ASCII art canvas that anyone can edit.  

On a busy night we get about 12-16 of the old veteran ANSI artists showing up and drawing.  I've attached some examples of that massive work in progress.  It's a record setter.  By a landslide.  It's 2,500 lines long.   We're actually pushing the boundaries of what PabloDraw can even do (on Windows, at least).

Everyone is invited and encouraged to draw.  Even if you don't think you have the knack any more, by all means please stop by the server and say hello.  Lord Jazz, aXd, and Spear are logged in right now, drawing. 

And here is the piece they're working on -
