the following art piece is generated from essentially one line of Atari BASIC code, alternating between two ATASCII graphics characters to present a top down view of an imaginary city scape with buildings and roads. This is the first piece of Atari BASIC code that I've written in over 30 years, as I've long since gone to many other programming languages, but I thought it only appropriate, in this case.
