+[Cadastre](https://github.com/jmdejong/cadastre) stitches together plots of "land" that users on a tilde server control. Ultimately creating one giant ascii town.
+
+For example,  consider one user has the following in `~/.cadastre/home.txt`:
+
+```
+0 0
+####################
+#  ________        #
+# /~\__\___\       #
+# | |  |   | ,,,,  #
+#           ,,,,,  #
+#    ~~~~~  ,,,,,  #
+#    ~~~~~     _   #
+#    ~~~~~    (*)  #
+# ~deepend     |   #
+#                  #
+####################
+```
+
+While another user has:
+
+```
+0 1
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~    ~~~      ~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~      ~~~    ~
+~~~~~~~~~~~         ~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+```
+
+Then the stitched together town will be:
+
+```
+#################### ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#  ________        # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+# /~\__\___\       # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+# | |  |   | ,,,,  # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#           ,,,,,  # ~~        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#    ~~~~~  ,,,,,  # ~    ~~~      ~~~~~~~~~~
+#    ~~~~~     _   # ~~~~~~~~~      ~~~    ~
+#    ~~~~~    (*)  # ~~~~~~~~~~~         ~~~
+# ~deepend     |   # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#                  # ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+#################### ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+```
+
+Ascii art is something that always interested me, but I never took the time to make. Cadastre limits us to 24x12 characters which serves as a good starting canvas for myself.
+
+You might be able to tell, but I'm a big fan of mountains.
