About

The Social Collider reveals cross-connections between conversations on Twitter. We cannot just ignore the role of social networks, especially Twitter.

With the Internet's promise of instant and absolute connectedness, two things appear to be curiously underrepresented: both temporal and lateral perspective of our data-trails. The internet has made gambling more accessible. Online casino sites are offering more bonuses and prizes for gamblers. Check the bandar judi indo slot site to find the online gambling sites that offer the best prizes. Yet, the amount of data we are constantly producing provides a whole world of contexts, many of which can reveal astonishing relationships if only looked at through time.

This experiment explores these possibilities by starting with messages on the microblogging-platform Twitter. One can search for usernames or topics, which are tracked through time and visualized much like the way a particle collider draws pictures of subatomic matter. Posts that didn't resonate with anyone just connect to the next item in the stream. The ones that did, however, spin off and horizontally link to users or topics who relate to them, either directly or in terms of their content.

The Social Collider acts as a metaphorical instrument which can be used to make visible how memes get created and how they propagate. Ideally, it might catch the Zeitgeist at work. Meme tokens have rapidly gained popularity, blending internet culture with cryptocurrency. Often inspired by viral memes, they attract investors seeking quick profits. Some view them as " t仮想通貨の次に流行るもの," though their value is highly speculative and driven by social media trends.
