Vuk Cosic from croatia will both be presention at the conferencen and exhibiting the Instant ASCII Camera during the event.
The Instant
ASCII Camera is working in the same way that the instant cameras located in the
railway stations. The difference is though, that this particular camera
produces portraits in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)
and that it is free of charge. This means that the pictures consist of
different letters; numbers and symbols that put together in a specific matrix
form a portrait. The consumer approaches the camera, presses the green button
and instantly receives his/her portrait on a supermarket type of receipt. Even
though that you cannot use these pictures for your passport it still provides
great opportunities for future application.
Using the Instant ASCII Camera it is possible to get free portraits of yourself. However you cannot use the portraits for your passport due to the fact that your portrait will only consist of letters, numbers and symbols put together to form a picture!
