Hello World! | Hello World! | ||
== Final Bot == | |||
'''Idea''' | |||
Tweet an image that represented Interpol lyrics based on the aesthetics of the band. | |||
'''What does it do? ''' | |||
A .txt file contains many of the lyrics of interpol. The bot grabs a line randomly and splits the letters of the line selected. Each letter has been given a color value which is display on top of an Interpol image randomly selected also. | |||
'''Process''' | |||
First, the bot was mixing interpol lyrics and tweeting them but the lines were not clean. It was still displaying them as a list. I cleaned them. | |||
Then I decided to use the lyrics in the order the words appear this would help me create a proper image of the words. | |||

Afterwards I only had an image that were basically rectangles that represented the words, Martin suggested I experimented a little bit more with this. I wanted to keep the images clean in order to sort of keep or respect Interpol Band's aesthetics. Either way I decided just to select a bunch of images of the band and blend them with the one I was creating, I was very happy with the result | |||

At the end I played a little bit with the filters to kind of make the image more interesting. I wanted it to have a sort of digital and with a little bit of a glitch. This was the result. | |||

== Robots have feelings too == | |||
At the end of the project I felt upset and frustrated with my results, but also happy. I like frustration. Interpol says: "you're so cute when you're frustrated" (and this is how it looks). So yeah I look cute and frustrated. | |||
[[File:Blend_one.jpg]] | |||
Anyways, though I didn't get the expected results, I did learned more about coding. I wanted to do more but at the time I tried to make my bot interact with people (on mention tweets), I didn't get to do it. This is what caused me frustration. I thought it was going to be easier but it wasn't. I am still trying to accomplish this, though I am afraid it will be too late by the time I'm done. | |||
This bot was frustrating, yes. But I do feel happy with the result. It is a very personal fan project for I do love Interpol very much and to see music + maths + colors in one place is fascinating for me. To me, that's one of the main principles of digital art, the combination of colors and math. I am very glad that now I can see how the music that I love looks in white, red and black, Interpol's favorite colors. | |||
I had fun along the way and I actually enjoyed very much to see and make a screenshot every time I was testing and running the bot and one of my favorite lines would appear in my screen. (Some examples are coming). Also I retweeted myself many times, so yes. I am a narcisist. | |||

== Progress == | |||
I manage to clean the code and now I am tweeting sentences without comas or other type characters that cause the sentence to look dirty and not clear. The words are still random and i don't know if I will keep it that way. I am going to create another bot that will take the sentences twitted by @RolandAndLeif and will produce an image out of them. It will only be pixels or better yet squares. | |||
