Stuart at w+k pointed me at this brilliant computer/art site which has implemented a way of watching world cup games as ASCII streams. If there's a game on you can go to the site and click on one of the links at the bottom with some telnety programme, like terminal on the Mac. If you can't get it to work, or you're too late for a game, or you can't be arsed, this is a few seconds of video of it here. (About 500k) It's fab. Thanks Stu.
I'm watching this now. It's perfect for graphic designers. TV with fonts.
And it's shit loads better than ITV.
