For research nerds - the ExC Extimony project

[Orbit]

I'm working on the Extimony project, datamining the "Testimonies of Former Christians" from 2005-2017 (thanks to webmdave for permission to do this). We're doing word clouds today, which show the relative frequency of concepts appearing in the extimonies; the more the concept is mentioned, the bigger the word in the cloud. The words on the edges are important too, though. Although we already could guess this, it's nice to have statistical backup instead of just making generalizations. I thought I'd share the first cloud result.

Here's the cloud for emotional content of the extimonies.

Here's the cloud for thread title words.

Interesting visual representations. I'm surprised that hell isn't bigger.

I was too, actually, but it is important, just by being there.
