In April 2018 I was having fun with the Okimate 20 thermal printer with my Commodore 64. It’s a fun printer that can use thermal fax paper so you don’t need a ribbon so you can print black as long as you have paper.
This is a PETSCII houndstooth pattern I came up with. BASIC source in the photos. I really like the built-in serif text font.
Talking about #retrocomputing things... Here a program I wrote on September 2015 with my first computer. That Commodore Vic-20 is now 40 years old, has 3.5 Kb of RAM and last time I tried it was still working :-) #creativeCoding#tumblr#petscii#basic#asciiart#8bit

Visiting artist-in-residence @raquelmeyers was at the @mediaarchaeologylab this past week, working on some #Commodore64#Demoscene projects and I got to see up close how she creates visual graphics of incredible depth and richness using only a keyboard and #PETSCII graphical sprites.
