This is a really cool visualization and analysis of text written across NYC, as visible from the street.

People seem to be less and less confident speaking their beliefs #online.
Online, is not where our future battles will be won.
To paraphrase Lenin — the #power is in the #streets, waiting to be picked up by those who know how to use it. #Mamdani figured out how to pick it up in the streets.
In this vein, I exhort you all to help redirect the knowledge we generate online TO THE STREET.
If you have a favorite #blogger, ask them if they’ll begin making their work in an accessible, downloadable, #pamphlet form that can be distributed on the street.
If you are a blogger or #author of substance, please, help us help you. Open your work up to reproduction and on the ground distribution.
We need to educate and infuriate those outside our online bubbles.
Let’s all help get the #WordOnTheStreet.
