I don't think the point is to help 'understand' the data better, so much as to help you find similar series, which is admittedly a pretty narrow goal. That said

I don't think the point is to help 'understand' the data better, so much as to help you find similar series, which is admittedly a pretty narrow goal. That said, I posted it because I hadn't seen this tried, and it was creative, not because I think it's the best way to do this. Honestly, I think the most compact way to really approach this problem would be to make a covariance matrix of all the data and display it as a heatmap, which is probably easier too -- but this is also cool, and a bit surprising.
