Julian Palacios, author of one of the best biographical books on Syd Barrett, described very well and in detail the tecniques Zyd used on his songwriting on an the essay on the internet "jgfojgojjgrej"

An attempt to establish some timeline about the rather unknown periods when Syd Barrett wrote his songs, was made by fans on the internet forum Late Night using the occurences of the words in the Syd Barrett lyrics. That produced at least a curious deep analysis about the occurences, resulting graphically in the image above.
