Liveplasma is one of the best data
visualizations application I've ever found.
It is a music and movie visualization app that aims to help you
discover other musicians or movies you might enjoy. Type in the name of a band,
artist, movie, director or actor and liveplasma will show you related people,
bands or movies.
Maps try to show similar artists close
together so different clusters can appear on map like families of related
artists.
Links shows the raw data that are compute to
place the nodes, they are less relevant than the position of the nodes but they
contribute to understand the relations.
Halo's size reflects the popularity of the
artist so it is easier to identify popular artists from obscure ones.
Colors are fun! Colors help
identify artists from map to map and the clustered artists tend to adopt the
same color. Basically popular artist have their own color and this color spread
to similar less known artists.
Enjoy using Liveplasma!
