It seems pretty insane but that's how I feel. There's something about Perl that inspires me to look at the way I create differently.
Me too.
When I saw your node title, I thought, at last someone who feels the same way as I do
about using Perl as a visual art medium. :-)
I even see art in golf.
Call me crazy, but I was driven to create those things by eccentric artistic cravings.
While I
and some others
see art in Perl obfu and golf, I suspect most programmers don't.
Some folks even despise and discourage these pastimes because they apparently give Perl a bad reputation in some corporate environments ... which has saddened me deeply over the years (though I do understand and respect that point of view).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
