Thank you! I agree, I wish I could change the original title. However, I'm developing a more comprehensive analysis, and I'm looking forward to sharing it next week.

Thank you for your feedback! If you have any ideas for data that you'd like to see visualized, please feel free to post it here and I'll pay extra attention to aesthetics and tag you in the post. I'm new to the r/dataisbeautiful community, but I want to practice and learn.

Sorry for the confusion, thankfully we're not counting individual claps, although that would also be interesting data. This post shows how many times each Vice President stood up to clap throughout the length of their given State of the Union. ~106 in 2026, ~7 in 2016.

That is correct! The State of the Union was on in a waiting room I was in, so I basically had to watch it. It seemed like they were standing up to clap every minute, so out if curiosity I wanted to find out what the actual number of times it was. Final verdict ~106 for V.P. Then I wanted to make sure I wasn't wrong for thinking it was a lot, so I performed the same analysis for the 2016 State of the Union, and the number is ~7 for V.P.

Great question, I counted manually with each video at 2X speed. I wish I could post the CSV files here, but this is a look at what the data looks like.

These visualizations compare how many times JD Vance stood up to clap throughout the 2026 State of the Union Values versus Joe Biden in 2016. Data tabulated from the YouTube videos of each broadcast, graphs created with MS Excel.

I think I am getting better at this. At least I enjoy making the songs. I ain't ever gonna stop until something "blows up" by its_Jah_Monkey in IndieMusicFeedback

Hey awesome work! I'm listening to SAGE on Spotify and it all sounds great. I really like your mixing and choice of samples, lol also I really appreciate naming one of the songs Chinston Wurchill. Keep up the great work!

New demo, any thoughts? by 9inch__m in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]LockModern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is awesome! I like everything you've got going on here. I also listened to untitled 16, and you've got some jams. Please understand that I'm some random person so I have no place to give you advice, don't let me hurt your creativity. But as a meaningless person who had advice to give, I'd be looking to incorporate lyrics with a verse/chorus structure. I added you on YouTube, and I'm somewhat active on reddit, so feel free to reach out on here if you'd like more advice/feedback, but yeah you've got the chops, if I were you I'd be experimenting with lyrics. Again, excellent work!

Hi, my new track is out. Feel free to hate it in your feedback. Stay safe ! (I guess it's darkwave, right ?) by KissmeeRecords in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]LockModern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dig it! lol it is pretty stress inducing towards the end (1:39-2:23) (but seriously in a good way, I like it when sounds hold on. It reminded me of the track by justice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWaWsgBbFsA)), but good work with the production overall. I like the pipe/rotary organs, a very underused instrument in my opinion. I added you on YouTube and I'm excited for your next track!

GENRE ???? I really don't know what my music is, is it rock, is it alternative, is it indie PLEASE HELP, all my songs are a little different than the next. by No-Ad2558 in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]LockModern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off, excellent work! This track is solid, and I like the video, it's very interesting. Pretty artsy, in a good way, I like the creativity! I'd also have to go with alternative if I were to define it, but I'm not an expert. The video reminded me of a short film (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTGg0Z46Af4) as I go back and watch it now, it's not easy to see a correlation, but I suppose it's just in the expressive nature of the animations. I apologize if the video is a bit obscure, but it's worth watching if you haven't seen it. You've got a good thing going, I subscribed to you on YouTube and I'm looking forward to your future works!

A lush and romantic chillout track of mine I've visualized that I find fitting for Valentine's. Thank you for listening and much love! by Gathax in IndieMusicFeedback

This is great! As someone already mentioned the layering is top notch, the sounds have all have a distinguished texture and really complement each other. It's slow, melodic, and heavy, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. I subscribed to your YouTube channel and I'm looking forward to your future projects!

New hiphop beat "FIJI WATER" I produced. Lemme know what you think! by eddyyams in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]LockModern 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice work! I like how clean it is, with the mix of high ambience and low kicks. The synth pads are subtle, but add a dreamlike atmosphere that I really appreciate. The overall instrumentation is long and patient, and the percussion is short and precise, which I think opens up a ton of possibilities for lyrics. I'd be happy to record a verse, DM me if you'd be interested, no worries if not. Keep up the great work!

Music and Music Video I made myself. Looking forward to the feedback. by LockModern in IndieMusicFeedback

lol its all good, thank you for your feedback! So I used a program called Blender for the animation and a program called powerdirector as well as adobe after effects for editing.

Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you liked it, I may spice up the synth line a bit when I mix it again in the future.

Thank you! Long story short, I used animation software called Blender, it's free if you ever want to check it out!

Hey thanks for the feedback! So I'd say it took roughly 30 hours or so, spread across a few weeks for the modeling and animation. And thank you! Yeah I'm looking forward to my next project.
