Imaginative Keyword Conversations on Screens with Flickr
Here a very similar idea by Family Filter (Jonah Brucker-Cohen, Tim Redfern and Duncan Murphy) done since 2003: SimpleTEXT
a collaborative audio/visual public performance that relies on audience participation through input from mobile devices. The performance creates a dialogue between participants who submit messages which control the audiovisual output of the installation. These messages are first parsed according to a code that dictates how the music is created, and then rhythmically drive a speech synthesizer and a picture synthesizer, using google web image search.
