Word Artists

In my search for new and exciting word art/artists I have found the following interesting and nice websites. Some are more successful than others but as before the ideas are nice.

www.tate.org.uk/netart/bvs/thedumpster.htm

The Dumpster - I love the interface very organic/fluid motion of the bubbles. The data is scrapped from blogs using searches such as the words 'dumped' and 'broke up'.

Exquisite Copse - Nice idea you choose from a list of books and enter a word and a tree grows from sentences in the book with your chosen word in. Simple concept (not sure the programming is though).
