word cloud


Wordle is a pretty awesome site that lets you make word clouds like this from any text you want, or any blog with an rss feed (like say, this one!) Obviously the post about NIN below pretty heavily influenced what you see. I wish it would go back through all the archives of this entire blog and do it though, it'd be interesting to see how that would come up.

On the music front, I'm loving the new Every Time I Die album at the moment, and am back on Cursive's latest album Mama, I'm Swollen because it is brilliant (like every Cursive album). And I just picked up Babes Say the Hottest Things by Mustache!, an old school sleazy rock 'n' roll band similar to Eagles of Death Metal featuring Adam from Murder By Death's "cousin". And finally also listening to the Saul Williams/Thomas Kessler/Arditti String Quartet collaboration NGH WHT, a combination of hip hop and strings which places one of Williams' poems from The Dead Emcee Scrolls over an experimental composition by Kessler.

All of the above are awesome and should be checked out.
