Newest technology with VOCALOID

 

 

 

     I saw one song written by  Kenshi Yonezu, that is called " 砂の惑星”, which was sang by Miku Hatsune, which is famous vocaloid.  it shames me, but that was the first time for me to know not only a song for vocaloid, but also the fact that creator can provide songs to vocaloid.  Acutually ,its not providing, but make a song by using the system of vocaloid,like this case.  

 

      I think everybody already knows the most famous vocaloid character Miku Hatsune.  after knowing the song, i started to find lots information about Miku Hatsune.  it is said that the vocaloid system Miku Hatsune was invented by YAMAHA since 2007, till now it has been developing , and what i was surprised is MIku Hatsune`s live.  At the concert, we can see her on the stage as if she is there really.  According to the explanation about it, they are developing image technology by repeating lots making experiments and through this kind of live.  they use hologram to project the character onto several screen, so that we can see the object made by it like its real,3D!  its totally innovative 😎.  And whats more that i was surprised is all audience there really are excited when the live starts and see Miku hatsune ,though they already know that its not real,but image.  its really interesting. A girl from the electronic world entertains so many people in the world.  when i watched the live, i really felt it exists there, like she is living in this world because she is singing and dancing, sometimes does call and response with audience.  If you still doubt it, then check it.

 

      It has really good aspects like  i wrote above, on the other hand, sometimes when i wached it, i felt sadness or lonliness from the characters on  the music video or the live.  i think it was coming from the fact that it was made by a creater to give a life to it.  so it means all vocaloid totally depends on human,like creater, technician, and electricity. For example, after finishing every songs, the character disappears  because of adjusting.   its really sad thing.   Even though we can see them at live like its real, performing like all vocalids are enjoying, having some emotion alike to the one we have, actually it doenst exist there.  so in some meaning, I think its really alike to the behaviour that robots have. they are programmed by designer to do something good for human by contributing.  they do whatever if its programmed, but they cant do more than its programmed.  they dont have emotion, though they are made with the outside alike to human body.  Thats why i feel sadness from seeing vocaloid maybe.  or it might be better than not be able to see them at all,but.
