Listening Post. Yes, that one by Mark Hansen and the other fellow. I don't know how it works. But here are some guesses about how you might build something along similar lines...

  • Searching for specific phrases (using regex) on specific sites
  • Storing them in hashes,then printing them to screen by feeding them into a separate time sequence
  • Feeding them to voice synthesiser as they are printed

They used scrolling displays. You could maybe use Arduinos to output the visual content. Or: how might you do something similar, say, in a browser? jQuery and other fun wizardry, for a changing display after page load?
