App Idea: Stock Trends as Waveforms

I'm not a dev, so this idea is absolutely up for grabs if anyone is interested. But I suddenly had this idea today. You could search for a stock and select the timetable, just like in Google. That would pull the price trends for that stock for that time period which gives you a waveform. That could then be used as an oscillator, either for sound generation or modulation.

    Cool idea, like generating a wavetable! Kinda reminds me of an app that popped up here not too long ago that used weather patterns to create music.

    Like the idea of the stock timeline generating a wavetable.

    Not a plugin, but it would be pretty simple to write a python script to convert stock data to midi notes or CC data for export to a MIDI file. I'll bet it already exists somewhere. (Storing this one in the back of my head for a possible "science project" some day.)

    There's also Holon and Holon.ist, which might be able to accept that kind of external data. Or not. I haven't explored sufficiently to see if they're limited to just movement and spacial data.

    It seems like I remember there being some app mentioned here within the last year or so that might be applicable. I can't remember enough about it to do any meaningful search for it though.

    Seems like this would result in a lot of bass right now.

    Some sharp peaks and valleys for sure.

    I could definitely use some upward compression on my portfolio about now.

    Hey yes, that’s possible in the Holonist JavaScript sandbox.

    You can use the weather service script as a template. The inputs can then appear in mirack through the Holonic Source module and you can convert to MIDI or build a patch in mirack.

    Happy to help if anyone wants to try it.

    Not waveforms but similar idea

    I made a script for Holon.ist for you to try but it was too long to post here, I'll put it on patchstorage today.

  • ConkersConkers

    Actually, the script is here: https://pastebin.com/iKJeCk7j
    You need to create a free Finnhub API key and enter it in the script.
    Open the Scripts page in Holonist, power off Holonist momentarily while editing. Create a new script and select any, e.g. Comparator, give it a name e.g. "financial". Delete the old script and paste in this script, enter your API key and hit save. The data streams will appear in Mappings. You can map market tempo to clock if you want.
