Music listening histories are portraits of a person's taste in music. In my research I am exploring this type of data and how user interfaces can be enhanced with it. In this Doctoral Consortium paper I describe my approach towards this goal: Statistical analysis and casual information visualizations can help in finding relevant patterns and aspects in listening histories. Making them available to regular users and asking what they learnt about themselves gives us the chance to find out more about their listening on the minute level of songs. Contextual information such as photos or calendar entries can help trigger memories. In this paper I describe the motivation and goals of my research and my current status. In the end, both the HCI community and end users can benefit from more convenient and sophisticated interfaces for this type of data.
