"Reading the NY Times, Aug 13", Inkjet, 38x40 in and 38x20 in
The image was created by creating a software program that reads an online
version of the NYTimes. The program analyzed the grammer of each
sentence. From the structure of each sentence, the program extracted
words that are relavant to the meaning of the sentence.
Each word is represented by an elipse. The connection between the
ellipses represent the semantic connection extracted from the grammer.
The size of the elipse represents how many time it showed up in the
paper. ("Mr" was the largest ellipse in the picture, and "Ms" was
nowhere to be seen.) Each ellipse has a unique color. The legend is
therefore used to decipher what words the ellipses represent..
