Making Sense of the Data Week 2
By: BHSMATH Date: March 27, 2020, 6:01 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Hi all,
Please post your responses to the following questions:
1. What do you notice? If you make a claim, tell us what you
noticed that supports your claim.
2. What do you wonder? What are you curious about that comes
from what you notice in the graph?
3. What’s going on in this graph? Write a catchy headline that
captures the graph’s main idea.
Post your response here. Start your responses with “I notice,”
then “I wonder,” and end with a catchy headline.
Don’t worry if someone else has said something similar in the
discussion thread. We’re sure lots of people will have really
great ideas. Not every idea will be unique. Whatever you say,
try to put your thoughts into your own words. :)
(We’ll share some of the best headlines next week.)

1. What do you notice? If you make a claim, tell us what you
noticed that supports your claim.
The maps for Metallica and Migos are almost inverse and I feel
it is a cultural reason as well as a population reason, for
instance, more people in Mississippi like Migos instead of
Metallica but it's inverse in California but California has a
higher population than Mississippi
2. What do you wonder? What are you curious about that comes
from what you notice in the graph?
I am curious about what a map of classical music would look like
3. What’s going on in this graph? Write a catchy headline that
captures the graph’s main idea.
"Music tastes from across the country."

I thought it was interesting that Maroon 5 and Taylor Swift, who
are more pop-y artists, were streamed the most in the West.
Meanwhile, in the Southwest, Migos is extremely popular. I think
part of the reason for this could be regional cultural
differences. For example, Florida Georgia Line is likely
streamed in the Middle of the US so much because his music
appeals to rural folk. The Western US is known for being
carefree, which might also explain the popularity of Metallica
there.

I'm curious as to why Maroon 5 seemed to be the only popular
artist in Hawaii out of the selected ones.
#3)
"Music Consumption Across the USA"

Music & where you live

I notice that there what music people listen to is heavily
dependent on the region. For instance, in the southeast region
there is a high density of #2, but none of the others. I wonder
what causes this difference. It would be interesting to see
overlaid on the map a few things like the artist’s birthplace,
where they live now, and where they do most of their concerts. I
would also think it would be interesting to do a more in-depth
study of more artists to see if it is related to their music
style.

This difference could also be due to the way the survey was
taken (only using youtube data). I agree that cultural
differences could have been the cause though.

I too am curious about what a map of classical music would look
like. I agree that cultural differences probably played a part
in this graph.

I notice that depending on the region there are different places
where different types of music are the most popular. For
example, Metallica is most popular in the southwest but Migos is
most popular in the southeast.
What do you wonder? What are you curious about that comes from
what you notice in the graph?
I wonder what causes different regions to favor certain types of
music. The cause of this is extremely confusing to me.
What’s going on in this graph? Write a catchy headline that
captures the graph’s main idea.

I never thought that the reason different music is popular in
different areas was due to cultural differences, but I certainly
agree.

It's interesting you mention classical music! I too wonder which
region would be the densest with people who favor classical
music.
