I built a 3D graph visualisation of the Gypsy Jazz scene around the world called the DjangoVerse ( https://www.londondjangocollective.com/djangoverse/). I used Django (obviously..), D3, and React.

It shows which players gigged together, and colours the players based on the country they live in. It's a wiki, so anyone can add themselves or other players, as well as add a link to a YouTube video to promote their music.

A bunch of people (Gypsy jazz a pretty small world!) added themselves (there are over 200 players on it now) then it died down.

I also wrote a blog post about the design process: https://www.jeremiecoullon.com/2019/11/27/djangoverse/

It was fun and meant I got to learn a bit of React and D3 !
