1. BDP: Big-Data Poetry

   Big data is a buzzword, as is cloud computing. But the data science and network-clusters behind both of these terms present extraordinary viable unprecedented computationally-tractable opportunities for language processing and radical poetry generation. In the summer of 2014 I took an intensive 11-week course in data science programming using Python. Based upon this theoretical and practical coding knowledge, I produced http://bdp.glia.ca, research where I apply a combination of data visualization, language analytics, classification algorithms, entity recognition and part-of-speech replacement techniques to a corpus of 10,557 poems from the Poetry Foundation, 57,000+ hip-hop rap songs from Ohhla.com, and over 7,000 pop lyrics. Currently the poems generated lack thematic structure.
