What is a Data Scientist?
![Page 3: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Holy Grail?
Knowing our audiences so well,
we can predict what they’ll do next
![Page 4: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The “problem” with new audiences
![Page 5: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Example: ENO’s La Bohème
![Page 6: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Maria’s night at ENO – what the data tells us
• Her first booking at the London Coliseum
• Out for an evening with her guest at
La Bohème
• It’s likely to be a special night:
• She planned it 6 months in advance
• She chose the best seats in the house
• She treated them to champagne in the
interval
• Lives in Islington, North London
How do you solve a problem like Maria?

CROSSOVER: ENO BOOKERS WHO ARE METROCULTURALS
![Page 10: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
What else do we now know about Maria?
• she’s a regular opera-goer in London
• She also enjoys plays and classical concerts
• She’s a frequent attender
• Her booking lead time varies between about 3 and 6
months
• She likes good seats and will pay for them
• She’s quite like a substantial number of other
bookers in the ENO database – which means there
are more like her to engage
Maria - what the combined data tells us

What next?
![Page 19: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
From description to
prediction
![Page 20: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What we can do already
• Describe audiences in terms of demographics
and lifestyle
• Segment audiences by culture participation,
socio-economic background, lifestyle
• Analyse repertoire journeys, audience flows and
retention and preferences
• Find crossover between audiences of different
artforms and organisations
![Page 21: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
What we are working towards
• Predicting audience types for performances
• Predicting success and failure
• Predicting effects of different pricing strategies
• Predicting audience flows, audience retention and
acquisition
• Knowing the predictive power of audience segmentation
systems
• Knowing the precision of prediction
• Using the predictions to inform planning and campaigns
![Page 22: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
What has to happen before
• Data sharing
• Comparability of information
• Understanding of the possibilities and limitations
• Data used to assist decision making
• Feedback on the practical value of insights
![Page 23: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Our Tool: Audience Planner
• Organisation Report
• Performance / Production Report
• Predictor
![Page 24: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Audience Predictor – next steps
• The richer the aggregated dataset, the more
accurate the predictions
• Testing and evaluation of what has the
predictive power
• Tweaking the prediction model
• Extending the model
![Page 25: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
That’s all very well, but how
does this help me?
![Page 26: Data Science: Towards a 360° audience view](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030307/58e588b01a28abbf5d8b6447/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Our commitment to you
Work with the sector to:
• Share learning and access to any tools as
widely and freely as possible
• Open up the aggregated data for all to
benefit and experiment
• Widen the datasets to include:
• Exhibitions and survey data
• Social media, websites and digital content

Final thought
‘We need to debunk the myth that data is
uncreative, impersonal, or a threat to artistic
decision making. Data is only useful where it
enhances existing ideas or current
understanding.’
Professor Paul Moore
Head of the School of Creative
Arts & Technologies, Ulster University
