STORY PORTRAIT

We turned our Independence campaign for The Times into something every reader can have. "Story Portrait" pulls headlines from your New York Times reading history to paint a portrait of your independent life, leaving you with a badge of honor that represents who you are ‒ and how you think ‒ to the world.

 
 

We developed an algorithm that strings together a connected thread of headlines to perfectly fill the screen with your life. You can shuffle the headlines until you’re happy.

The colors of your most-read sections blend together to create a more personal and unique composition.
