New Media: Typorganism

is a set of Flash-based animated visual communication experiments exploring interactive designing based on the metaphorical notion of typography. Among the experiments: ASCII-O-Matic, a web application that can convert any digital image into an ASCII artwork that can be copied and added to a personal web page; Good news, Bad news, an animated visual display of current breaking news divided in two contrasting groups; Visual Composer, a digital timeline music editor that plays your selected notes in sequence; and (you're gonna love this) EmoType Chat, an experimental tool that enables you to chat with yourself. <http://www.typorganism.com/>
