Data Scraping Piece

Intro

Created a piece where I scraped news headlines and bylines, distilled them, and then fed them into Suno AI to make a song

• Created a script that pulls key words from a Google News Page search query
  • Bookmark of links to tutorials I used
    • Web Scrape Google News with Python Requests and Beautiful Soup | Part 2
    • Coding Web Crawler in Python with Scrapy
    • Generating Proxies.. shouldnt need this for scraping google, but just in case: Rotating Proxies For Web Requests in Python
• Gathered text
• Pasted it into Suno.AI with “Pop song about:” at the beginning
• Got a crazy song.

# Response ## Interdisciplinary Studio - How can you push this deeper - Keep feeding data over and over, make it more and more strange - Make a music video from your "livestream" of you making the video - Connection with Fluxus - this piece is like modern fluxus in a way - Treat this AI as a medium and keep melding and experimenting with it. - Read: [[Wild Blue Media]] # Next Steps - Maybe I can scrape FOX/CNN and other media sites for their top stories and create songs using that data as well. Might be interesting.
