nerd alert: all my lyrics in a word cloud
Posted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 10:30 am
So there's a website that turns lyrics into a word cloud. http://www.wordle.net/
It analyzes the word frequency and places them in a random design where the bigger words are more frequent and the tiny words less.
Additionally, I have all of my lyrics on a private wiki because I'm a crazy person. To grab all of the pages texts I ran this SQL query:
select CONVERT(wiki_page.page_title USING utf8), CONVERT(wiki_text.old_text USING utf8)
FROM wiki_page
INNER JOIN wiki_revision
ON wiki_page.page_latest=wiki_revision.rev_id
INNER JOIN wiki_text
ON wiki_revision.rev_text_id=wiki_text.old_id
And then proceeded to clean up the result.
Well, here's one of the images it generated.
