Wow. Finite automata of song lyrics, drawn using Graphviz.

Wow… I cannot say this is very useful - But it’s very amusing and fun. And, dare I say, a beautiful idea :)

Looks like “A Day in the Life”s graph shows something about both song and real life :)
Always complex.

Some of you are missing the point. This is based on John von Neumann’s
Celular Automata and its further developments. It’s a special theory
about mathematical neighborhoods. Gets very complex as the neighbor-
hood grows and new assumptions are introduced adjacent to Neumann’s
assumptions (axioms). In the 80s and 90s the theory of Cellular
Automata was connected to the theory of networks. The figure above
seems to use this connection and apply it to song structure.
Correct me if I am wrong, please.
A musician.
