Creating Visual Stories Using Flickr Images, Photos

FlickrPoet is an interesting site that uses photos and images from Flickr for storytelling. It is part of an ongoing exploration of storytelling in the age of the Internet.

Just enter a paragraph of text, a poem, some lyrics or even just a few random words and FlickrPoet will find matching photos on Flickr based on a search of tags, titles and descriptions of the photos.

- You can re-run the search with other images by clicking "Show Story" again.
- Poems and lyrics seem to work best, hence the title, but feel free to experiment.
- Please let us know if you have suggestions on how to improve FlickrPoet.

The tool is an expe

riment to visualize short texts with images pulled from a text search on Flickr. Results tend to fluctuate wildly between random and deeply meaningful.
