This is a landing page I use when I’ve made other web-projects that I need to share, but probably are not quite ready for prime time. If you found this page, you’re probably supposed to be here?

Below are some word clouds. I made them in a tool for data analysis called Flourish. The words come from seven oral history interviews as part of the Parramore Speaks Oral History Project. They’re comprised of the words that appear most commonly in the transcripts, with a long list of words filtered out to remove things like articles, the speakers’ names, or some other words that were more noise than signal.

This first one is made with the 50 most common words in our interviews.

This second one has 100 words.

The third one has 250 words.

This one is made from 500 words.

And this last one has three thousand words. It isn’t very useful.
