Soon, we will be ready with our first visualisations, similar to the ListenBrainz Dashboard, but with additional dimensions reflecting our project’s objective of diversity and fairness in music streaming services. These visualisations will be our first step towards developing the ‘fairness score,’ which will be one of the main outcomes. Our goal is to develop a method to calculate the fairness of music streaming services.

We are not only interested in listening habits, but also in opinions, experiences, and stories about music streaming services. Are recommender systems behaving as you expect them to? Do they have their own agenda? How is the balance between catering to your music preferences and introducing you to what you didn’t know you wanted? Therefore, we encourage you to participate in an interview with one of us! It can be online or face-to-face, depending on your location. The interview will take around 30-45 minutes, and your answers will be anonymised. Sign up here!

The Fair MusE project has two other dimensions covering the economic and the legal aspects of music streaming. The purpose of the economic dimension is to map the economy and the business of music streaming services. The legal dimension of the Fair MusE project discusses and examines copyright issues at social media. Read more at the Fair MusE main webpage: fairmuse.eu
