I Have a Dream: A New Text Toy..

I wanted to share this even though it is something a little different.

This is a computer-generated image I created at wordle.net from Dr. Martin Luther King's iconic 1963 "I Have a Dream" speech. The complete transcription and video with full audio of the speech is available here.

I thought it was fascinating that an entire speech could be sifted through by a computer, the most frequently occurring words picked out, and an image accurately representing a text can automatically be made.

If you have any favorite prose or a poem you recently wrote, it would be interesting to enter it into this tool and see what comes up.
