This Online Christmas Painting Uses Real-Time Tweets To Show The Holiday Spirit Isn't
 The artist Thomas Kinkade has made a fortune selling his idyllic Christmas paintings, which are saccharine-sweet but perfect for the holidays. In "A Victorian Christmas Carol," characters inspired by Charles Dickens stroll through a s**w-covered street in their bonnets and top hats. It got the ad agency Red Pepper wondering what it would be like combining late-nineteenth century folks with Tweets from 2013. They took Kinkade's Painting and integrated Twitter's streaming interface, calling it "Christmas on Tweet Street LIVE!" It doesn't take long to **tice how ridiculous Christmas-themed tweets, full of (mostly censored) expletives and emojis, look in a sentimental scene from the past. Check out This brief video to see how it works: If you spend a couple minutes on the site, watching the Tweets pop up in speech bubbles over the characters' heads, you'll **tice that Red Pepper used key words and trending topics to instill some traits into the figures. For example: Tweets filled with exclamation points and smileys Show that the woman in the red dress is happy, thankful, and a bit ditzy:  This handsome couple is returning from a day of shopping. The wife talks about her purchases while the husband complains about the ordeal: [IMG]http://static4.businessinsider.com/image/52b49f0decad04bb06f848d5-294-262/tweet%20st%20s**b%20man.jpg[/IMG] All wishes for Santa are directed to This demanding little girl riding beside St. Nick:  All Tweets referencing a memorable scene from "Home Alone" get sent to This boy playing with a dog (and all Tweets referencing "yellow s**w" get sent to the dog) :  The guy with the cane is a stand-in for Ebenezer Scrooge, who has updated his lexicon for the new millennium:  There are plenty more examples, and if you've got a minute or two to kill, check them out at Tweet Street LIVE!.
