Robot Karaoke Replaces a Song's Lyrics with Unrelated Text While Preserving the Syllables

Robot Karaoke is an event at New York's Wonderville where a custom system replaces the lyrics of a familiar song with completely different text. THE WEIRD ALGORITHM matches the replacement text to the original lyrics by syllable count, and human performers then sing the newly generated words to the familiar melody.

The catalog offers more than 100 songs and over 50 texts. Past combinations have included Yelp reviews of psychics, Craigslist vehicle ads, and negative professor reviews set to familiar songs. The event is hosted by Jamie Brew and Jenn Schiffer.

Instead of using technology to make karaoke easier, the system deliberately turns a song you know into text you have never sung before. The lyric system has joined the sabotage team.
