Original Post:
artist network visualization / information aesthetics

an interactive network visualization that shows the current listening
activity of MyStrands users.
every time a user plays a track by a recognizable artist, it will show
up in real-time on the map as a small circular node, along with the
album art. if 2 or more artists are played consecutively, they will
become linked. eventually, strands of related artists will form from
individual user’s listening histories, establishing
the artist as a “hub†of shared musical
information between multiple users.
a tutorial movie explaining the visualization concept in detail is available after the break.
