  A.I. is a controversial topic currently in the world of artistry. Most of the artists are adamant to recognize the said technique as a valid art. The most argument from them is that A.I. is using other's art to generate art. The said usage may infringe copyrighted art. Linkin Park uses A.I. in their official MV. They used kaiber.ai to generate the video animation. Based on the product description, kaiber.ai is using the A.I. to generate animation-style.  The A.I. seems using stable diffusion to generate the sequence of images. That's why the animation is not consistent. Corridor Digital discussed this as the A.I. is designed to create image not a series of images. The noises randomly created by A.I. made each picture differ from each other. That's why the animation may jumpy and flickered.  In other video, that may be not ideal, but this MV is talking about memories. Memories are fuzzy. They sometimes play the incoherent series of imaginations. Sometimes, it would pres...

  This song originally sung by Porter Robinson . He used heavy stylized voice typical for the EDM song. Kobo Kanaeru, however, take a different approach by using natural voice. This song plays at its strongest using piano rift and I think this is right on the alley of Redshift, the music producer of this Kobo Kanaeru rendition. I can feel the KZ livetune rift on Last Night Tonight   appearing in this music video. Well, Redshift was one of the oldest Vocaloid producer from Indonesia. I think the existence of Vocaloid nuggets on their song is a natural progression. At the first hearing, I am a little disappointed on Kobo at 2:52 when it was supposed to be the climax. She seems a little bit struggling when trying to do power notes. I wish the song could have been stylized or modulated to higher note. Either way, the song should have been a bit more powerful if we get that part. I think the payoff is too weak. However, I can see this as a "Viva La Vida" type of music. Really cool...

This is the first generation of JKT48 Virtual division. A controversial move from JKT48 team to refresh its value in the entertainment industry. Their hardcore fans always dissing the VTuber industry as a whole. They kept defending their oshi and the realness part of them. But now this happens.... Oh, boy, there is nothing real in the entertainment industry. It's all just roleplaying even if the person is real. Anyway, we don't go there for now. The Controversy I can see some 48 fans flaming their disappointment in the chat. They still can't accept this reality. They are still waiting for the original songs for JKT48. Something that they were promised years ago. Unfortunately for them, the music entertainment industry is already changing. CD is no longer available option. We see many CD distributors like Disc Tarra have falling down. Even food franchises like KFC are no longer actively selling the CDs. It's all online now. Online streaming like Spotify is not viable for...

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.   -- Proverbs 17:22, NIV My father's health is deteriorating after his 70th birthday. I think he's thinking of passing away. His thought is being influence by the Psalm 90:10, NIV: Our days may come to seventy years, or eighty, if our strength endures;   yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,  for they quickly pass, and we fly away. This dark feeling of Psalmist seems thinking that a man life is only for 70 years or up to 80 years. So, a man more than 70 should be an empty shell. I think this is a  contradictory! God never said that. He only limits human to 100 years. Is there something wrong with this text? So, I tried to see what the essay said about this text. According to essay by Pinker, the passage might get mistranslated slightly. According to his analysis, it should be interpreted as such: The years in which we have strength are about seventy (or, when particularl...

pikamee... pic.twitter.com/NIBfx59D1x — Banned Vtuber Memes (@bannedvtmemes) February 21, 2023 Pikamee, a vtuber was deciding to stop her character for vtubing in 31st March . Her last stream was playing Hogwarts Legacy. This game was gaining notoriety because the J.K. Rowling, a creator of Harry Potter, was making a transphobic statement . Because of this statement, many twittards witch hunting many content creators who playing Hogwarts Legacy. Pikamee and her company said that the graduation was planned. She had taken a one-month break before making the decision. However, this graduation made her fans enraged. Her fans understand that she was a bullying victim in the past when she was still a child in school. They don't believe that statement, instead they know this is because of the witch hunt. Some of the fans fight back. The whole trans community is now being accused of a bully who don't want to get bullied back. A bully who thinks oneself as a victim. *Sigh* I love Jes...

I, like other Indonesian normies who fallen to the rabbit hole, was brought to the scenes by Kobo Kanaeru. That's why my song selection below is mostly for Hololive and Indonesian. I haven't falling deep enough. The list is not charting or something, just something that remember. #1 Cynical Night Plan - Pavolia Reine and Tokoyomi Towa This song was engineered by Redshift. Redshift have built portfolio since the Vocaloid era. In VTuber era, it seems they becomes the go to for Reine's songs.  By default, I prefer natural vocal. However, the stylized vocal by Towa and Reine engineered by Redshift really doing well with my ears. It creates amazing sound experience for me. What I like from Redshift is that the space is enough in every EDM music they made. This really makes me who not really into EDM can listen this song without tiring my ears. I like Towa deep voice, not gonna lie. Reine did a good service for her teammate to give the best part for Towa. Reine herself also did a...

A Vtuber by the name Hoshimachi Suisei made a breakthrough by singing in First Take. She was the first Vtuber featured on a "normal" music channel. I don't know about First Take, thought.  The First Take is apparently a music channel respected by the Japanese music industry.  According to its description, artist featured on the music channel will be singing live without filter. It seems this is similar to the respectable NPR's Tiny Desk Concert. A raw, unadulterated, performance. Some people find it weird with an anime character singing without showing the real artist face. I don't think this is weird. Do you remember Gorillaz ? They did it back then. As a virtual band, they already in the music scene with their own avatar. That's why, I don't think the artist goes by an anime avatar known as Hoshimachi Suisei is weird. I mean art is weird, so be it! There is nothing wrong with going through the vtubing route. Regarding the performance, I do like it. If I...
