[ddj] Re to Nuria Masdeu's mail: data-driven-journalism Digest, Vol 66, Issue 3

Sat Sep 10 20:29:28 UTC 2016

Hi Nuria

Thx for your input. The Barcelona Supercomputing Center's music styles
visualization makes me think of what Google created a year (or two?) ago.

Watch http://www.musicmap.info, a project by a Belgian guy. He worked for
about 8 years to create this amazing visualization. For sure the best one
you can get about music styles.

Cheers
Daniel
