AC/DC Merging Music and…Excel?

AC/DC released a new music video this week on their website. This is no ordinary video, this is spreadsheet ASCII Art!

I know, spreadsheets aren’t typically mentioned in the same sentence as sex, drugs, and rock&roll (and neither has AC/DC for about 15 years), but this is worth checking out. Download the excel file here or if you’re feeling lazy just watch the youtube video below.

The internets is ripe for mashing up different technologies and this is a great example of how, these days, a new artform can be created overnight. Not to say they’re all going to have staying power, but they are worth noting. Surprisingly, this video has created a moderate buzz in the viral video-sphere, with about 160k views on Youtube as of writing, 3 days after they released the video. This seems like it would be the kind of video to gain slow and steady views from the interoffice email chain crowd.
