Mapping Poet #7

Open vnck opened 7 years ago

I wrote a crude python script that maps location data to words from a corpus. Each poem, marked between lines, is equivalent to a day's worth of tracking.

Example

religious waning whole. old dead for spatula. southeastern honest. whole with transplantation. critical. sexual aphrodisiac. unhappy tenuous. recent technical caused redneck,

long schoolgirl, wild, long bare peaceful subdued reluctant compact patient lies? unemployed? smart worshiper.

big past his comma, asleep, great feasible early curtailment? experienced? sweet thy skeptic,

active by principality? casual struggling curious noble ordinary nuts growing swollen silly? rich private heaving.

Surprisingly coherent! Is the mapping arbitrary?

Each noun is mapped to a location ID. Hence, the more frequent words are representative of places I visited more.

Each adjective is mapped to an instance of travel, which adjective is decided by the distance travelled.

Punctuation is representative of a save of data made by the app into the web but the kind of punctuation is random.

Each poem is representative of a day's worth of data!
