Sky of Beginning

Recently, Vocaloidism uploaded a summary (link) on the article by Kenmochi Hideki, YAMAHA's Chief of VOCALOID Development at Yamaha where he talked about VOCALOID. The said article was first published on Yomiuri Shinbun (link). After reading the article, I was overwhelmed by various pent-up feelings and thoughts. Thus, I decided to write something in response.

I think it's more suitable to call myself a VOCALOID activist instead of a VOCALOID fan. After all, I love VOCALOID music, I preach about it and I get involved in activities that were related to VOCALOID. In fact, there's a local VOCALOID fan community that I'm involved in called the Malaysian Vocaloid Party (link). At times, I come to think of myself as a political party member!
/vote for me in the 13th General Election!

Collectively, I would call the people in the VOCALOID fan community as activist of the VOCALOID movement - one that includes all the forms of art related to VOCALOID such as producers, band members, cosplayers, artists, utaites, dancers and translators.
(thanks for all your effort and contribution to the VOCALOID fan community all these while!)

Hello, Laughter

for a socially awkward person
i have always believed that the pen is mightier than the sword
and writing gave me more time to consider the implications of my words
- speech never offer the opportunity of fine-tuning
