I have seen some of the 3d ascii arts posted here
(the kind that you need to de-focus to be able to
see, I think they are called SIRDS).  Now, are
these patterns generated by software or manually?
My request:

1. if they are software generated, when would you
   find such software? ftp sites, commercial...
2. if they are manually generated, what is the
   concept and methodology? is there a FAQ for
   creating images like these?

Thanks.
