looks very constructivist

I was not familiar. Not sure what the revolutionary message is but happy to take interpretations :fist::skin-tone-3:

trying to get a job with an assassinated Arch Duke? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhCXAiNz9Jo

Here's how my mind works: I see a formerly disgruntled bishop chess piece seeing its world in a new way after dropping acid.

:face_with_spiral_eyes:

@U0525KG62 I think that video looks more like it's made from cut up newspapers / cartoons ... which if you saw the most recent spiderman movie, is all the rage

collage is a bit part of constructivism

and that video is from before the spider verse IIRC

I'm quickly running out of art history tho

I like it when I find an image that was waiting to be seen 🧑‍🎨:skin-tone-3: 🚬

You really have a good eye @U04V5V0V4!

thanks Lee. Photography is like most stuff - the more you know the more you feel like you know nothing. I do get a few decent shots a year 😅 so I'm just trying to increase the averages. tbh most of the stuff I post here is daily junk but I think this one is a keeper.

Yeah, this one is definitely a candidate for your exhibit at the art gallery. Proposed title: bishop on acid trip

most of my photography is trying not to ruin flowers or landscapes. I'm not very good at it, but I enjoy it. Perfect hobby material and something I'll never try to do professionally.

likewise obvs

or are they only fun, and never actually useful

I think they’re pretty useful for my use case

I wouldn’t have selected them as a visualisation if they weren’t. When the weights matter and you have a possibly infinite set of words/tags, word clouds make a lot of sense. In other cases, they might make less sense.

I will admit that I was being glib

TIL what glib means

Here’s one of my uses. It’s only meant as an overview, although you can click every word if you want.

data is taken straight from the Open English WordNet

Cool.

What are you using to make it?

d3-cloud + some mathematics of my own design to adjust the weights
