# 0xSero/ascii-art > Converts photos into two-tone dot-lattice maps on a fixed grid and animates them into seamless loops (dust, growth, voids) via a JS engine and Python scripts. - Magnitude: 5.3 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 123 total · +17 stars measured 2026-10-31, 05:18–06:40 UTC, ≈ 93 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Generative media · Language: JavaScript · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-25 · Last push: 2026-10-25 - GitHub: https://github.com/0xSero/ascii-art · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/0xSero/ascii-art ## Useful for - Generate a dot map from a photo and render a still PNG/SVG preview - Build an animated HTML scene from a scene JSON and capture frames for MP4 - Tilt or rescale an existing dot map on the same grid ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-31 (UTC), 05:18–06:40: 106 → 123 stars (+17). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +93 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 6 days old and already has 123 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #167. - About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 6 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 32 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 12 ## Stars per day, last 7 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-25 … 2026-10-31: 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 125, 17 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #167 ## More in this category 1. **paipiange/nvzhuang** — 8.0 · Early signal · Generative media · Go · +201 stars measured 2026-10-31, 00:27–06:40 UTC, ≈ 834 by evening A static catalog of 1407 AI-generated women's clothing images with bilingual search and optional virtual try-on via external image generation models.

It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
