The images linked to the songs are quite nice, they fit in a good way. That is what I think is interesting, I wouldn't have thought that the approach could work. Neither the analysis of the lyrics nor the way of getting a flickr image via a search weighted by itnerestingness. I might adapt the flickr part, <a href="https://github.com/nurh/wallofsound/blob/master/wallofsound.py#L40" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/nurh/wallofsound/blob/master/wallofsound....</a> is really a lot easier than what I did instead.<p>You aren't by any chance interested in separating that, in hosting a server which gives a link to a good flickr image when given a word? I searched for something like that and in the end stayed with my ugly approach of parsing flickriver for getting a random image from a hard-coded group with a fitting topic.

"First, finding the lyrics of the song that’s playing, and picking out the key words or themes from it"<p>I listen to Melodic Death Metal. Some of the themes in this genre are not suited to provide pictures one might want to look at. A blacklist or filter for some keywords could help here.<p>Would be nice if you could provide more examples for other genres.
