Inspired by Mimi Ọnụọha’s The Library of Missing Datasets, this site uses Markov chains to serve as an inspiration for new datasets that yet have to be created.

  • EU-funded projects in the US.
  • Three centuries of UK general elections.
  • 4,500 years of urbanization.

  • Refugees resettled in the kitchen.
  • Datasets you can play on in an antique store.
  • The popularity of the world.
