THE WORLD IS OURS

Video installation

Outline

A cinema project revolving around Hatsune Miku, the sound source of a voice synthesis software as well as an anime character. It de- picts the merger of fantasy into everyday reality through Miku cosplay performed by the artist. Through Miku, with all the contents related to the character are fan-created, the project ex- plores the cultural phenomenon of our time where “users are both producers of content its consumers.”
