rwisgjg's definitions
Doing research on someone in a professional capacity, as preparation for an interview or informational meet up. I.e. you've only interacted briefly through email, so now you need to know what they look like, where/what they studied, and what work they're doing now, etc. before you hop on the phone or meet for an in-person coffee.
Can also be purely interest-based, e.g. someone you think is doing cool shit, want to get to know, and possibly collab with.
Basically internet stalking, but with the goal to come prepared to have a great convo and finesse a connection.
Something ambitious millennial artists and yuppies do, so they're in the know with dope people in their industry.

I'm getting coffee with them tomorrow, but I don't even know what they look like, so I'll have to do some telescoping tonight.
