Our group was assigned the New York Philharmonic data set which included the dates of different performances from early 1800’s to the early 1900’s. Once receiving it, one aspect that I was interested in was to see if there was a trend of amounts of performances throughout the years. Thus, I decided to make a visualization based on that question. I used the google fusion table<\/a> to create this visualization.<\/p>\n

\"data\"<\/p>\n

From this visualization, we’re able to see how many different performances there were throughout the years. It could be a bit hard to interpret the data, but to make it simple, all you have to understand from this visualization is that each point represents a different performance- you can ignore the vertical position of the points. I wish I could have created a bar graph that would have explicitly show the number of programs per year but I didn’t know how to alter the data to show this, so the closest I could get was to plot the different performances by the ID.<\/p>\n

From this visualization we can see that there was an increase frequency of dot plots as the years went by which signifies that the New York Philharmonic added more shows towards the end of the 1800’s. We can also see that towards the end of 1800’s, it seems like the New York Philharmonic started playing annually, unlike in the early 1800’s. One surprising thing I found was that the New York Philharmonic did not play at all during the years 1849-1852 and 1862-1685. It made me wonder if the data set is missing or if this was true. If it was true, it would be interesting to know why the Philharmonics did not play during these years.<\/p>\n

Another interesting aspect that would be interesting is to color code each plot depending on which group performed. This data set showed that there were 4 different groups that performed (NY Philharmonics, NY Symphony, members of NY Philharmonics, musicians from NY Philharmonics). Currently, this visualization doesn’t show any distinction between these groups, so it would be interesting to see if there was a trend on when these groups performed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
