A visualization of people who’ve contributed to the Barack Obama page on Wikipedia. Users who edit a lot drift toward the center. Best watched full screen. Visualized using code_swarm (Processing) and my new Wikipedia page history parser Wikiswarm (Ruby). Instructions on how to make your own visualizations can be found in the README.

Politics aside, that was one of the best mashup songs I have heard since the Ballmer “developers” techno mashup.
