NEW LENSES: Experimental Capture and Release

I choose to make an indirect portrait by sifting through my texts and finding a collection of texts that both appeared to be nice and mean as well. I would have liked to get more of a variety but I didn’t get as much data. I collected the texts and put them into a word cloud generator (site) to see what would come out, which words are used the most or least. It would have been interesting to collect from a variety of different people to see how different each cloud would be.

I had additionally though to make an actual word portrait out of the words but I didn’t have enough words and I wasn’t too sure how to go about it
