Tahir Hemphill - Hip Hop Word Count
The Hip-Hop Word Count is a searchable ethnographic database built from the lyrics of over 40,000 Hip-Hop songs from 1979 to present day. The Hip-Hop Word Count describes the technical details of most of your favorite hip-hop songs. This data can then be used to not only figure out interesting stats about the songs themselves, but also describe the culture behind the music.
Laurence Lafforgue - ArtWeLove
Founded in 2008 by fine art enthusiast and Internet entrepreneur Laurence Lafforgue, ArtWeLove editions aim to facilitate the access to the best of contemporary art. The premise is that online distribution and the improvement of digital reproduction techniques make it possible for a wide number of people to access and collect art affordably. All ArtWeLove projects are unique collaborations with some of the most vibrant voices in contemporary art. ArtWeLove has also made it a point to help people understand the artist’s perspective by creating short-segment video interviews with each artist and an innovative learning platform.
