Satellite Young - Singing Dream (Official Video)

This is collaboration music video with art installation ”Karaoke with Artificial life" that Emi Kusano has been created. このMVはArt Hack Dayで草野絵美が一ヶ月かけて製作した作品、人工生命カラオケ『Singing Dream』のコンセプトを映像化したコラボレーションです。 “Sining Dream” (2018) The time is the future. Stored for historical documentation, the communication karaoke machine that took the 1980s by storm, had never been experienced by anyone existing in the now. One day, a sudden phenomena had occurred through the machine’s network, it had grown autonomy in the machine. The machine, now with a heart, had started to self-express and reject simple requests of singing pop songs or being possessed by human beings. With the newly found passion of the karaoke machine, its codes and circuit boards grow and multiply like roots and leaves of a tree. As if it is celebrating its own birth, it sings “Happy Birthday” on repeat. It uses this most sung song around the world, utilizes it as group intelligence music, and aims for the survival of species. It creates its own lyrics, and projects its dreams on the monitor to make communication. It receives inspiration from the outside world, and begins to sublimate its own creations. When humans come close, it allures it by camouflaging itself to a normal karaoke. In this work, the possibilities of a future wherein from a collection of human created technology and information, life will be born, and a new seed to prosper will be created is explored with a science fiction touch. 時は近未来。歴史的資料として保管された、通信カラオケマシンは現存する人類の誰もが体験したことがない1980年代に一線で活躍していたものだ。ある日、ネットワークを介して機械の中で突然変異がおこり、マシンの中に自律性が芽生えた。心をもったマシンはヒットソングを歌わされたり人類から所有されることを拒み、自己表現し始める。 カラオケマシンの想いと共に、機械の中を張り巡らせるコードや基板は、根と葉のごとく成長、増殖し始めた。自己の誕生を祝うかのように「Happy Birthday」を歌い続ける。 世界で一番歌われているであろうこの曲を、群知能音楽として活用し、種の生き残りを目論む。自ら生成した歌詞、夢をモニターに投影しながらコミュニケーションをとる。 外界からインスピレーションをうけながら、自らのクリエーションを昇華し始める。人間が近づくと、普通のカラオケのようにカモフラージュしてそそのかす。 本作品では、人類発のテクノロジーや情報の集合体から、生命が誕生し、新たな種を繁栄しようとする未来がくるかもしれないと、人工生命をSF的に表現した。 Sinigng Dream （Artpiece） Artist/Emi Kusano, Exterior Design/Kunihiko Matsuba, System/Torajiro Aida, Haruki Nakamura, UX Design/Kazuya Yanagihara, Produce/Narihirohaneda Thanks to The National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (Miraikan) DENSO ** ■Music Video Staff Singing Dream (Song) by Satellite Young Lyrics: Emi Kusano Music: Bellemaison Sekine Director + Edit /Ryo Ichikawa, DOP/yansuKIM, Camera Assistant/Togo Iso, Lighting/Atsushi Hirano, Karaoke girl/ Frankie Cihi (Cameo), HMU / Riina, Lyric Translation / Eric Bradford, Single Artwork / Shot by Kusk, Bellemaison Sekine, Teaser Music: brinq Satellite Young / サテライトヤング Emi Kusano (vocal), Bellemaison Sekine(sound-man), Tele Hideo(Media Technologist) ■Find Us on bandcamp https://satelliteyoung.bandcamp.com/a... iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/jp/album/sat...
