   It could, but I'm not going to try. I don't have a good program for   
   drawing in braille, just for converting black and white images to it.

   I've seen software to rotate ASCII art 90 or 180 degrees, I'd have to   
   hunt pretty hard to find it again I think. But I can imagine a program   
   to transcode ASCII art to braille as well. I don't think it would work   
   as neatly as a hand done translation though.
