It is official. We live in the future!

Ever see one of those movies where people are at a concert, only the supposed "live" singer on stage is actually a singing, dancing hologram?
 
Ladies and gentlemen, it is science fiction no more.  We now live in an age where a holographic vocaloid can sell out a concert venue.
 
  

Japan...

This is some Macross Plus Sharon Apple shit right there.

Smash Bros. Do it now Japan.

" Japan... "

God dammit

Well, I guess I could throw something at it.

it's so creepy..  
AH GOD I'M NOT READY FOR THE FUTURE 

BAFFLED. JUST BAFFLED. THIS IS BAFFLING.

Ahh! Strip clubs will never be the same again.

I thought a holographic U2 or someone would pop out of the stage.
 
When that anime girl popped out I almost pissed myself laughing, especialy hearing the crowd.

The future arrived about 8 years ago. You must have been sleeping.

Yeah it's been done before, but nothing ever truly happens until Japan puts an anime girl in it.
 
I fear for cosmetic surgery of the future. Hell, I fear for it in the present.

I wonder if this can be applied to film a Who Framed Roger Rabbit? remake. 

vocaloid miku hatsune    

I wonder if you can see up her skirt.

" @kingclaw: Yes that was in 2006 but this looked much better.  "

I WANT THIS ON MY COFFEE TABLE

God, I hope we don't get holographic strippers anytime soon. "

This is old

and of course it has to be freaking anime
  

Japan scares me...

" The Gorillaz have done this. Where have you been? "

That was the creepiest thing.

I find the Gorillaz too absurd to pay them any attention. "

Those holographic strippers wouldn't be any more fake than your typical, surgery enhanced performer. *rimshot "

Fuckin Japanese....They do the weirdest shit....Though Super Smash Bros fight would be awesome.

Soooooooo what exactly is this? Like a music video where they CG'ed in an anime chick over the crowd? I am confused.

We won't truly be in the future until we get blue alien chicks to sing opera tunes onstage.

Miku?

I dunno about you guys but I done got tired of Hatsune's soulless robot voice a couple years ago. Hopefully "her" fan base will too and move on to the next stupid thing.

I still want my commercial jet packs and flying cars.

Fucking Minority Report is getting closer and closer everyday...

Yes. But it's pixelated.  If this can be done, why can't someone incorporate a control mechanism and make a game out of it? They can. Put that at an arcade. I'd empty my pockets for it. "

The future looks bright.

Wait a second. If we're in the future, then what happened to the Present? Is the Present in the Past now? How is that possible??
 
Oh God. OH GOD!!!

I... er... wow...

So can someone tell me how this is actually done? I feel kind of stupid but...seriously. Like...it's not really a hologram right?
