Hello World!
Final Bot
Idea
Tweet an image that represented Interpol lyrics based on the aesthetics of the band.
What does it do? A .txt file contains many of the lyrics of interpol. The bot grabs a line randomly and splits the letters of the line selected. Each letter has been given a color value which is display on top of an Interpol image randomly selected also.
Progress
I manage to clean the code and now I am tweeting sentences without comas or other type characters that cause the sentence to look dirty and not clear. The words are still random and i don't know if I will keep it that way. I am going to create another bot that will take the sentences twitted by @RolandAndLeif and will produce an image out of them. It will only be pixels or better yet squares.
Midterm Bot
This is a bot that takes a song from the band Interpol called Leif Erikson. It tries to take line by line from the lyrics and re-arrange them. My experiment was to see if some nice combinations could be created from lyrics that are very thoughtful and metaphoric.
So far the bot is running in twitter and is working, but I still need to clean it and take it a step further, I wan to take the lyrics from the song Roland (also from interpol) and mix them in one tweet, to make ir more interesting.
This is the code
import tweepy
import sys
import time
import random
from time import sleep

lines = leif.readlines()
for line in lines:
li = line.split(' ')
random.shuffle(li)
clean=' '.join(li)
api.update_status(status = clean)
print(clean)
time.sleep(90)
leif.close()
