Hatsune Miku: Japanese HOLOGRAPH Plays Sold Out Concerts; Science Fiction Comes To Life (VIDEO)


In what is surely a terrible omen not only for musicians but also the continued existence of the world as we know it, holographs are now playing sold out concerts in, where else, Japan.

Holographic idol Hatsune Miku is the creation of the group Crypton Future Media, using software from Vocaloid, and the group has put the avatar on tour with a live band. The sight of thousands of screaming fans waving glow sticks while the the holograph "performs" on stage is straight out of a science fiction novel.

The avatar is huge and incredibly realistic. Check out "her" concert performance below. More videos can be found here.

This is awesome..holographic Vocaloid, neat! **Note Vocaloid singers are not any
one singers voice. Its made on a computer with a combination of artists contributing
to the sounds to create one voice.

4. Whoa! Is that freaky or what??

Actually, it's not that freaky and is very cool.

I remember some years ago, reading in one of the weekly science magazine whilst I was in grade school and reading about this being predicted for the "future"...
