      the amiga ascii scene is a completely different art scene than the pc
      art scene i was involved in way back. the main difference is that the
      amiga had a vary different font compared to the pc. the "topaz" font
      had a lot higher characters which made / and \ connect to each other
      in a very different way compared to what we were used to on the pc.

      the two different scenes still inspired each other and a few artists
      did both pc and amiga.

      the easiest way to look at amiga ascii today is to install the retrotxt
      browser extension and head over to artscene.textfiles.com/ascii/.

      or head over to aSCIIaRENA.

      here are a few favorite logos from browsing the old archives.
