We will go a step forward from this Obama Post. Remember in that case I counted all the words in more than one hundred Obama speeches.

Using the same data I made a new algorithm based on a simple tree structure but, in this case, the branches are the words.

The tree structure is highly random, but the size o the words (branch width) is always proportional to the number of times the word appears in the speeches.

The image contains four samples with different color variations. The branches take their color from the original Obama photo post. I added some transparency so the overlap generates more color variations.

The algorithm generates a new random version of the tree every time I click. So I just clicked till I obtained a nice one and then saved it as pdf.

Marillion was one of my favorites bands… while Fish was in there.

In the Fish era all the albums covers was made by Mark Wilkinson. Really beatifull drawings that match perfectly with the introspective songs lyrics.

Let’s go. I mix both concepts counting all the words from Marillion (with Fish) lyrics and one of their album covers.

The first most used words: know 80, just 67, heart 52, time 47, got 43, way 41, now 39, eyes 38, never 37, say 34, another 33, love 33, go 32, take 31, like 30, night 30, away 29, tux 29, want 28, burning 27.

(Dedicated to Rafa, Chavo and Pez… so, so, so close to forty)

Words from more than four hundred Bruce Springsteen lyrics. This time the word size is proportional to the number of times the word appears in his songs.

The list: just 733, well 720, night 667, baby 650, come 650, got 621, love 604, now 582, like 516, man 484, little 467, girl 419, oh 417, know 414, get 402, go 383, one 353, can 347, day 345, ain’t 331…
