Friday Find: Hamilton Algorithm

Have you caught Hamilfever? Even if you haven't, this musical algorithm breaking down the rhymes of this smash hit Broadway musical is impressive, fun, and fascinating.

And also, if you haven't caught the bug, I highly recommend checking out the soundtrack. I certainly don't have Hamilflu as much as some, but I hear something new every time I listen to it. I can't wait to see it when it (inevitably, I am sure) goes on a national tour. [Updated! Hamilton is coming to San Diego! Who wants to come with me?!]

And if you like this, I recommend checking out this Friday Find from a few weeks ago.

PS - This pinned tweet from the play's creator, Lin-Manuel Miranda, makes me laugh every time I see it.

*Lady rolls down her car window at 181st street*
"congrats on HAMLET!"
Me: "I WISH I wrote Hamlet!"
Lady: "Yay HAMLET!"
*drives away*#myday

Friday Find: Rachel Ryle

I forget how I stumbled across Rachel Ryle's Instagram account, but I was immediately hooked. She is a gifted artist who posts gorgeous, fun, short animations that have me watching on repeat and scratching my head as I try to figure out how they're done. (Stop motion, that's how.)

Her most recent video:

Aren't they mesmerizing?!

Friday Find: Piggly Wiggly

Today's gem, which I watch on an endless loop while laughing until I cry, was brought to me by my dear friend Andrea, who is one of the reasons the Friday Find exists, and without whom my life would have a dearth of funny clips and Tim Riggins gifs.

Enjoy!
