So.... am I the only one sorta freaked out by Hatsune Miku? For those of you who don't know, Hatsune Miku is a popstar in Japan. And she is also a cartoon. Now I know what you're thinking: why is this any weirder then say, Jem? Well Jem never actually performed live for her concerts, Hatsune preforms via projection. Also Jem had a voice actor. Hatsune doesn't, she has a Vocaloid 2. (And what pray tell is a Vocaloid 2, you ask?) It's a singing synthesizer application. Now are you seeing why she kinda freaks me out? Sure, she's cute now, but when the computers rise up... Well, they'll all be playing her songs. (Wanna see? Look here. ->)
