      • iliekcomputers is a late sleeper mostly :)
      • 2017-03-14 07346, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Okay, I'll try to flesh out the survey a bit more
      • 2017-03-14 07304, 2017

      • Quesito
        👍
      • 2017-03-14 07308, 2017

      • 2017-03-14 07324, 2017

      • Quesito
        Ok iliekcomputers! I love your gsoc proposal!
      • 2017-03-14 07332, 2017

      • Quesito
        lets dive in!
      • 2017-03-14 07336, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        thank you!
      • 2017-03-14 07337, 2017

      • gcilou
        Someone is getting a job offer 😏😏😏😏😏
      • 2017-03-14 07349, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        gcilou: Congratulations!
      • 2017-03-14 07354, 2017

      • Quesito
        woot woot gcilou!!! CONGRATS!!!!
      • 2017-03-14 07357, 2017

      • gcilou
        Thanks!!
      • 2017-03-14 07353, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: I was thinking that after we're done with the basic graphs that any reasonable listen tracking site should have (the ones that I have in my proposal), we could start with more esoteric visualizations.
      • 2017-03-14 07319, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        gcilou: Congratulations! Where?
      • 2017-03-14 07330, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        The first thing that I want to add was requested here, if you want to take a look: https://community.metabrainz.org/t/statistics-in-…
      • 2017-03-14 07333, 2017

      • Quesito
        yes, I feel my idea of art needs graphs first...then expand on that :)
      • 2017-03-14 07351, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        basically a stream graph of user's artists
      • 2017-03-14 07300, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
      • 2017-03-14 07305, 2017

      • gcilou
        Leo_Verto[m]: It's called collective bias
      • 2017-03-14 07328, 2017

      • gcilou
        Back end development with ruby and rails
      • 2017-03-14 07309, 2017

      • Quesito
        I am liking the stream graphs....
      • 2017-03-14 07311, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        influencer marketing, so working with social media personalities to promote products?
      • 2017-03-14 07314, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        If you have more ideas, I would love it if you could post them on discourse also
      • 2017-03-14 07357, 2017

      • gcilou
        Leo_Verto[m]: yeah. I'll be working on the in house development for the client facing interfaces
      • 2017-03-14 07359, 2017

      • Quesito
        so iliekcomputers basically part of my world domination plan for MeB is a bit of social media--which yes--I need to put on discourse--making examples soon!
      • 2017-03-14 07322, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        ah
      • 2017-03-14 07328, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Nice!
      • 2017-03-14 07332, 2017

      • Quesito
        It'd be different types of graphs/visualizations for each project of MeB
      • 2017-03-14 07339, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        stuff that people would share on facebook etc.
      • 2017-03-14 07345, 2017

      • Quesito
        since it's rather hard to 'see' a database
      • 2017-03-14 07355, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        indeed
      • 2017-03-14 07303, 2017

      • Quesito
        perhaps, another way for people to 'see' our data and all our hard work
      • 2017-03-14 07327, 2017

      • lazka has quit
      • 2017-03-14 07328, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: I only have passing familiarity with most of the other projects, so if you could give some examples it would be a great help
      • 2017-03-14 07336, 2017

      • iliekcomputers can think of lots of stuff for LB though
      • 2017-03-14 07356, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Eh, there are just tons of possibilities for MB alone
      • 2017-03-14 07308, 2017

      • Quesito
        now in my small experience I was going to use processing (I'm quite comfortable in processing) but you proposal took things to whole new possibilities...
      • 2017-03-14 07315, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        I'm thinking artist relationships would be pretty interesting
      • 2017-03-14 07320, 2017

      • Quesito
        tons....
      • 2017-03-14 07347, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        gcilou: speaking of job offers, wasn't ruaok trying to make your our resident UX expert? :P
      • 2017-03-14 07348, 2017

      • Quesito
        I'll try to make some mocks up and put it on discourse tonight. I know that would be most helpful.
      • 2017-03-14 07303, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        from most of the music communities I've seen, there is a trend of sharing, say, collages of albums that they've listened to and stuff
      • 2017-03-14 07327, 2017

      • gcilou
        Leo_Verto[m]: lol I'm not leaving meb and I am still interested in UX but I can already program :p
      • 2017-03-14 07330, 2017

      • Quesito
        mainly iliekcomputers can your proposed system be used beyond LB and could it be automated?
      • 2017-03-14 07331, 2017

      • gcilou
        And money ;)
      • 2017-03-14 07358, 2017

      • akashn97 joined the channel
      • 2017-03-14 07303, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        obviously
      • 2017-03-14 07322, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        i was just wondering if you had any input for the survey https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wsKuNxIQhtbwv…
      • 2017-03-14 07329, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        I would have to think about how it could be automated
      • 2017-03-14 07350, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        automation as in adding new statistics?
      • 2017-03-14 07306, 2017

      • Quesito
        ok--I also--don't know if this is too much to ask for a gsoc, etc...
      • 2017-03-14 07341, 2017

      • Quesito
        yes pulling new statistics each week/month/etc and putting them into form (graph, etc)
      • 2017-03-14 07358, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Hmm, is this part of gamification or it's own stuff? "Socialization"?
      • 2017-03-14 07312, 2017

      • Quesito
        lol, i have no idea....
      • 2017-03-14 07332, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: pull new stats could easily be done definitely
      • 2017-03-14 07352, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        but adding completely new graphs to sites would take work
      • 2017-03-14 07343, 2017

      • Quesito
        ok--how about new graphs...hmmm.
      • 2017-03-14 07304, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        For example: once someone has written code that generates top artists for a user, new stats can easily be pulled. But now adding a graph that shows which places these artists originate from would need work
      • 2017-03-14 07322, 2017

      • Quesito
        right
      • 2017-03-14 07347, 2017

      • Quesito
        so the main issue is automating the stats into graph correct?
      • 2017-03-14 07355, 2017

      • Quesito
        I mean the first issue....lol
      • 2017-03-14 07345, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        I think so, yes
      • 2017-03-14 07307, 2017

      • Quesito
        hmm. ok. lots to think about here.
      • 2017-03-14 07323, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: if you have some cool stuff that you want, I can definitely add that to my proposal, ruaok wanted to start on this stuff early anyways.
      • 2017-03-14 07313, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        right now I have only given serious thought to basic functionality in LB, but I would love to work on stuff that increases its popularity also :)
      • 2017-03-14 07319, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: do you have a last.fm?
      • 2017-03-14 07336, 2017

      • Quesito
        why don't we do this-I'll do some mock ups and post on discourse--for discussion and to give you a better idea.
      • 2017-03-14 07359, 2017

      • Quesito
        then we can discuss more--if you want to branch out into the other projects, etc
      • 2017-03-14 07309, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        great!
      • 2017-03-14 07315, 2017

      • Quesito
        I do not have last.fm :( I'm sorry.
      • 2017-03-14 07321, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        ah
      • 2017-03-14 07339, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        they had plenty of visualizations that were worth sharing in their heyday
      • 2017-03-14 07353, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        stuff like your mood in the last week
      • 2017-03-14 07336, 2017

      • Quesito
        lol--I think as long as the visualizations are cool and concise per project--it'd be amazing. Music is so sensory--we hear it--but we can see it too--jsut like data.
      • 2017-03-14 07353, 2017

      • Quesito
        I think i did see the mood in the last week one!
      • 2017-03-14 07315, 2017

      • Quesito
        the main thing is that it's something feasible to do....
      • 2017-03-14 07301, 2017

      • iliekcomputers thinks we could work on this before GSoC anyways :)
      • 2017-03-14 07316, 2017

      • Quesito
        Me messing around in Processing is fun...but probably only great for one or two images....
      • 2017-03-14 07339, 2017

      • Quesito
        may is when gsoc starts right?
      • 2017-03-14 07357, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        Quesito: officially coding starts may 29th
      • 2017-03-14 07305, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        but may is community bonding :)
      • 2017-03-14 07310, 2017

      • Quesito
        right--but prior to is the community...
      • 2017-03-14 07322, 2017

      • Quesito
        yeah..do you feel bonded? :P
      • 2017-03-14 07327, 2017

      • iliekcomputers
        haha
      • 2017-03-14 07340, 2017

      • iliekcomputers does not need much bonding now :P
      • 2017-03-14 07317, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        I think a SPARQL interface similar to Wikidata's would be great for creating arbitrary graphs
      • 2017-03-14 07343, 2017

      • Quesito
        ok--let me get me act together and throw something up on discourse...then we circle back and discuss together iliekcomputers!
      • 2017-03-14 07322, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        This thing is really cool and something similar for MB would be great https://angryloki.github.io/wikidata-graph-builde…
      • 2017-03-14 07345, 2017

      • Quesito
        here a quick one--I got this person's permission for his code use--that Ithink would be lovely for AcousticBrainz http://www.matthiasdittrich.com/projekte/narrativ…
      • 2017-03-14 07335, 2017

      • Quesito
        Leo_Verto[m]: i heart several of those!
      • 2017-03-14 07337, 2017

      • Quesito
        It be great to do community graphs as well as a thank you to our community....we have a lot of editor/voter stats...
      • 2017-03-14 07311, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Apparently there is/used to be this project called LinkedBrainz which included a SPARQL endpoint in it's scope https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/LinkedBrainz
      • 2017-03-14 07342, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        Hmm, the words "graph contest" come to my mind :P
      • 2017-03-14 07319, 2017

      • Quesito
        with the MeB 2017 t-shirt design at stake???
      • 2017-03-14 07325, 2017

      • Quesito
        :P
      • 2017-03-14 07317, 2017

      • Quesito
        (do we do t-shirts?)
      • 2017-03-14 07328, 2017

      • Leo_Verto[m]
        We should totally do t-shirts

      • 2017-03-14 07320, 2017

      • CatQuest
        hmm i dunno where it is now..
      • 2017-03-14 07337, 2017

      • CatQuest
        .. i wore it at the last summit ...
      • 2017-03-14 07342, 2017

      • CatQuest
        .. maybe it was unlucky
      • 2017-03-14 07305, 2017

      • CatQuest
        anyway + for stuff with *brainz logoes
      • 2017-03-14 07320, 2017

      • CatQuest
        I'd totes get a mug with ListenBrainz or Bookbrainz on it!
      • 2017-03-14 07352, 2017

      • CatQuest
        or metabrainz. nice colours :D
      • 2017-03-14 07338, 2017

      • CatQuest
        ooh I got an idea. how about mug with a meta brainz on the outside and inside smaller hexagonal honycomb pattern of all the others
      • 2017-03-14 07348, 2017

      • CatQuest
        also ,it's funny ya'll talking about stats and visualisation.
      • 2017-03-14 07348, 2017

      • CatQuest
        hey Quesito, since I a dat or so ago thought about this: i think the "details" tab on entities is really lacking
      • 2017-03-14 07348, 2017

      • CatQuest
        so I thought what could be done to it to make it more useful. so I thought.. "list the amount of tracks and releases and rels (for artists and labels) amount of releases on (for recordings) etc
      • 2017-03-14 07348, 2017

      • CatQuest
        and then.. why not soem statistics? and graps...
      • 2017-03-14 07355, 2017

      • CatQuest
        on the details tab
      • 2017-03-14 07324, 2017

      • CatQuest
        way back ni the day, the sidebar had a "top editors" (then mods)
      • 2017-03-14 07324, 2017

      • CatQuest
        which you could click and get to a "top voters/editors" "top voters/editors this week"
      • 2017-03-14 07341, 2017

      • CatQuest
        page
      • 2017-03-14 07303, 2017

      • CatQuest
        we now have the "stats" page, but it's hella hidden (to use a CallerNo6 term)
      • 2017-03-14 07301, 2017

      • CatQuest
        it'd be insteresting to show individual artist, release, label, work, recording, instrument, area etc stats..
