Cesar Hidalgo, the team lead, is a pretty interesting guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C%C3%A9sar_Hidalgo and also the person behind the "Atlas of Economic Complexity" http://atlas.cid.harvard.edu/ and Brazil's "Data Viva" http://dataviva.info/en/

The guy was also involved with an earlier iteration of the tool: https://immersion.media.mit.edu/

In fact, i had used the tool and thought this new one looks familiar. That's how I came to know of Hidalgo. Some pretty interesting projects he's been part of

Autoplaying background music. Why?

Ditto! It felt like I'm back in 1995, had to take the headphones off as also the volume is pretty high. Shall II carry on and start looking for MARQUEE in the page's source? Edit: just googled MARQUEE. Nice trolling, Google.

What's the troll? I just googled MARQUEE and it looks like any other search results page.

Ah! Neat Easter egg. The "About 23,300,000 results (0.34 seconds)" text is a marquee.

This is very cool; is there a similar tool (or map this one) to Slack? I found this article about the concept (via different tool) applied to Slack. > https://www.fastcompany.com/3061976/see-whats-really-going-o...

Seems like there may be a slack integration, just not thoroughly documented -- e.g. https://github.com/MacroConnections/openteams/blob/550b7bd43...
