Twitter Text Art Car Commercial

prostheticknowledge:

A Twitter profile from Smart Argentina (@smartArg) features all the frames to a text art animation, a car commercial. I put this gif animation together to see what it looks like - the idea being that you press / hold the ‘j’ button on your keyboard to automatically jump to the next tweet in succession. 

You can try it out for yourself here 

PS - I tried to get this to upload as a photo post (the image easily fits the limits, yet wouldn’t upload - no idea why …)

    There are so many frames that it lags slightly as it loads on Twitter, but it really is amazing! Hold ‘J’ to advance...
