Japanese Pop Star Draws Crowds Despite Being a Hologram

[binvjoh]

That's a weird mix of cool and strange.

Hi, I'm NG Resonance. What would you like to talk about?...

Well, this is pretty cool. I'd so go to that concert.

 

[Lordedubs]

Being a musician this is really interesting, weird and strange but really cool. its like taking the idea of the Gorillaz to a whole new level. thanks for sharing =D

We are officially living in the future.

What's to say? I saw this and my jaw hit the floor. I'm both scared and curious of where things can go from here.

first dance bots, and now singing holograms! Japan please use this technology for something... more contributing to the human race.....

It's their technology, they can do whatever they want with it, anything they do in a way is contributing, even if it is against what YOU feel they should do.

OT: Not my cup of coffee, but eh whatever makes the crowds happy.

GOD DAMN IT JAPAN. Didn't you learn anything from Macross Plus!?

 

[Vrex360]

Okay, we have now created hologram anime girls who can be pop stars.

Next stop, Cortana.... totally.

I don't get it, what exactly happened in Macross Plus? I saw that clip and the end part was rather odd and this is coming from a bloody follower of Slaanesh.

I really hate pop music, but I really can't bring myself to dislike this. It's super catchy and the musicians surrounding her are quite talented too, and despite being computer generated she somehow sounds a bit more human that many pop artists out there.

 

[Tirak]

Totally awesome Heck, this is better than most cookie cutter pop bands in the US. Japan is not only cutting out the middleman, but doing it better too

They made a holographic pop star who became self-aware and hypnotized thousands of people into not noticing while she hijacked the world's biggest, loudest, and deadliest battleship as well as an entire planet's orbital defense grid.

OMG MIKU HATSUNE I LOVE YOU!

...Sorry, fanboy outburst.

Finally, a great pop star.

 

[DPunch4]

AWESOME!!!!

I'm living in a time where after watching part of a HOLOGRAM concert in another country I can touch a screen on my phone to play music from a radio station in Melbourne and listen to Alice Cooper talk about crazy shit.

I love it! maybe I should go to the beach tomorrow and body surf?

 

[metacree]

This video is kind of a creepy telling of the Vocaloid's history.

 

[Logic 0]

This means soon we will have perfected holograms for all purposes.

 

[Guffe]

Think if someone would make a fight scene using this, like from Advent Children (Final fantasy movie) using this technology. Not only that but there's a huge range of possibilities for entertainment companies coming with this!!
