Michel Comte 1989

We love the people over at Polygraph because they do music + data in a spectacular manner. Miles Davis would have turned 90 this year so they are celebrating his legacy in the manner they know best - using data and stunning visualisations.

polygraph.cool The 2,452 Wikipedia Pages on which Miles Davis is Mentioned This year, Miles Davis would have turned 90 years old. 25 years after his death, he’s still synonymous with Jazz, but you can find his fingerprints on so many other ideas.

Most of these 2.452 pages are - of course - music related, but once you dig in, you will find out things like that Miles is one of only two persons identified as cool by the Wikipedia article on the subject. 

(Now you want to know - I know! The other one is Malcolm X)


Dig into the article - The visualizations are amazing!
