We are currently being shown a YouTube video of BigDog in my IS management class where a dude kicks the BigDog.

Yes, I was questioning this couple of days ago that who needs artists anymore, when you can just put a hologram on stage with a synthetisized voice coming from a voicebank.

You mean performers. Artist are still responsible for creating the music, the 3D model, the choreography, music.

then artist(/programmers) are still needed for the software that is able to generate music, the 3D models, the choreography.

lol that is messed up. Why is she wearing a man suit? She looks disturbed and you can see what looks like a parent reassuring her.

She doesn't look disturbed at all, she looks bored. Hell, she even yawns at 2:04.

They're getting smarter.

:erm:

Indeed. The comment almost made sense in context.

100 BigDogs crossing a frozen river would indeed be a sight to see.

So for some reason today I decided to find out what the fuck was up with that hologram concert.

Turns out the hologram girl is Hatsune Miku, the song is The World Is Mine and the hologram is being projected onto a screen. Here are some links if you care to learn way too much about it.

Behind the scenes

Also, don't click the spoiler tag text below unless you wan't to bring the full horror of that concert/song to bear.

Below are the lyrics for that version of the song, the song was shortened for that concert.

The very best Princess!

So treat me just us such, carve it in your heart! Okay

Number 1 Always notice my different hair styles.

Number 2 Look at me from head to toe.

Got that?

Number 3 For everything I say,

reply with at least three words.

If you understand, then do something about

my lonely right hand!

Not really,

I didn’t say I was so spoiled.

I want you to think I’m cute,

from the bottom of your heart.

The very best Princess!

Just realize it…hey hey!

Making me wait is out of the question!

Who do you think I am?

Whatever, right now I want to eat something sweet!

RIGHT NOW!

Short cake with strawberry on top,

Top of the line mouth watering Pudding. (Probably not strictly correct)

Everyone everyone is holding back.

Don’t think I’m such a spoiled child!

I can hold back if I put my mind to it!

I’ll just regret it later on..

Of course, that’s because I’m

The very best Princess!

Always keep an eye on me ‘kay!

I might leave off to somewhere.

Suddenly I was hugged from behind,

it’s so sudden! Eh!?

“Watch your step, it’s dangerous.”

you said as you turned the other way…

…saying it that way is more dangerous…

Now they're going for our food. Not long until this is combined with face tracking and they can drown us in ketchup where we stand.

Holy smokes!

That must be a powerful PC that's veiwing it as there is no lag when zooming in/out at all. Either it's a good PC or my PC is getting old.

I think that's more to do with your internet speed, than your PC's speed, but either way: Hermie! Your home town is pretty, wow! That's a lot of mountains!

Where the Big Dog is terrifying because of its effectiveness, this is terrifying because of its complete hopelessness. You ask for ketchup and the sheer force of the stream shoots a sausage through your eye and into your brain. Now you are dead.

I think the robots are just luring us into a false sense of security with this one. They make us laugh at them while they pretend to be helpess. Only to strike when we are at out weakest.
