Wordle of the Food Movement
I recently found a fun toy online called Wordle. The New York Times uses it often to provide a unique visual of words. I think it is interesting as a sort of content analysis display. It displays frequently used words from a provided text. I decided to check out a visual comparison of presentations by some of the significant names in the today’s food movement: Alice Waters, Michael Pollan, Wendell Berry, and Vandana Shiva. It actually does provide a snapshot of their priorities. Enjoy.

Reconnecting: A Culinary Revolution (Alice Waters 2009)

We Are Headed Toward a Breakdown in Our Food System (Michael Pollan 2009)

The Pleasure of Eating (Wendell Berry)

Monocultures, Monopolies, Myths And The Masculinisation Of Agriculture (Vandana Shiva 1998)

I love these graphics!
Would you mind if I use the Wendell Berry one in an article I’m writing. I’ll link to your site of course.
Thanks.
