This is the only example I can find lying around in my backups: http://jonty.co.uk/bits/radiohead_creep_lyricviz.png http://jonty.co.uk/bits/radiohead_creep_lyricviz.png
- jojohack 11y agoThanks, jonty. I like your layout choice, makes it more readable. What do the colors and arrow tips represent?
- FoeNyx 11y ago> What do the colors and arrow tips represent? Dunno about the arrow tips, but seems like the slowly changing colors enable you to quite easily follow the original order of the lyrics. (except if the reader is color blind)
- vinchuco 11y agoI thought it was this at the beginning. Like the color maze near 3/4 through this page https://bost.ocks.org/mike/algorithms/ https://bost.ocks.org/mike/algorithms/
- jonty 11y agoI actually had a version using force-directed layout very similar to yours, took me a while to decide on this version! Each colour is a verse, fading through the spectrum. An unfilled arrowhead shows a transition between words in a line of a verse, a filled arrowhead shows a transition between lines.
- jojohack 11y agoThat's a pretty neat approach, maybe I should do something similar. Originally I color-coded the words (based on frequency) but having a gradual spectrum applied to the edges feels a lot more intuitive.
