Python and computer generated poetry/fiction

Creating Poetry from Images – xFiles

I WANT TO BELIEVEoverlaid
Using the Python programming language I created a script that creates poetry based on images and a source text. When ran the program detects pixel brightness values of the image and assigns a popular word from the source text to that pixel brightness, the result is fun, new poetic form that bases word frequency and spacing on the assigned image.
To demonstrate this script I used the X-files. I took the entire script and used it as my source text, I pulled the most popular words from ALL episodes of the x-files and mapped them to different photos from the television show. The code for this project can be found here: https://github.com/aj701/Rwet-Midterm
