I *do* like to understand my limitations. Wasn't sure if I would feel like sharing my results. But after looking at them (using the "Preview Post" button), I thought I would post them so everyone can see. Sometimes, it's nice to have an idea how things will turn out.

ondoho,
Most ASCII art is made by hand, but if you want randomly generated ASCII art, you can check out toilet (yes, that's a package).
Just `sudo apt-get install toilet` and let it do the magic for you
The man page:
https://www.unix.com/man-page/debian/1/toilet/

^ toilet is very cool, but doesn't it just make bigger letters from text you put into it?
the man page does not contain the word "random".

Remember me drawings I made on Amstrad CPC 464 :-)
I love the first, the keyboard. Can't recognized what's just after the girl.
In the same scope, you have Cowsay too, the "Star wars in ASCII", the ssh-keygen making a drawing of the computed key, lots of others ones I don't recall by now...
