After Hours in ASCII

Berman introduces a 3D city made of characters. He says he created it with Astra.

I had Astra create a 3D city using only ASCII characters. It’s called After Hours. You can walk through it, and if you look closely, the whole scene is made of little characters.

Walking through the city

He estimates it took two prompts and shows a rainy, populated environment. He says the scene generates as he walks.

DIAPOSITIVA 1 / 1ASCII city sceneThe demonstration renders buildings and a street with text characters.

I think this took two prompts. People are walking around and it’s raining. The environment is generative: I say I can keep walking and it will keep populating the world, though the short clip does not establish an infinite extent.
