The Dow Piano

A representation of a year of the DOW Industrial Average as a graph and as musical notes.

At first I was going to post it as something too bizarre to pass up.

But, then it occurred to me that representing data in unexpected ways, such as musical notes, could be an interesting way to explore data.

I am not promising that you will find anything based upon converting stock trades from the various houses into musical notes. But you won’t know unless you look.

What will be amusing is that if and when patterns are found, it will be like the rabbit/duck images, it won’t be possible to see the data without seeing the pattern.
