Exploring Bowie's Lyrics with Python, Watson & Bluemix
From “Space Oddity” to “Blackstar,” Bowie inspired us with his diverse personas. What can IBM Watson reveal about those iconic characters through natural language analysis? That's the mission of Ziggy, a little Python app that builds a database of songs, and digs into the style and tone of writing within them. This session explores the findings and shows how it works. We'll consider real world use cases and future iterations.
