Potty Mouth uses a simple python script and scraperwiki.com to scrape twitter for a particular curse word. This scraped text is then converted to audio via a text to speech conversion software. The piece explores the contrast between what people write somewhat anonymously on the internet compared to being spoken aloud. The first run of Potty Mouth resulted in nearly an hour an a half of audio from a few seconds of scraping twitter.com.
