VOCALOID Songs in Porter Robinson’s ‘Secret Sky’
On May 9th, Porter Robinson presented the online charity music festival, Secret Sky, with the goal of raising money for the MusiCares COVID-19 Relief Fund. It was a 14-hour long stream of some of the world’s most talented musicians coming together in an online, digital auditorium created by Active Theory using Dreamwave technology.
Once in the auditorium, attendees would appear as a ray of light among thousands of other attendees and navigate around the room. One could find an audience stand, a sc reen showing the performers and their sets, a counter showing how many other people have joined and from where, and most impressive of all, a constantly changing stage showing videos and other animations relevant to the current song being performed!
VOCALOID Songs Performed
Secret Sky can be re-watched via the link below from Twitch TV. Although it doesn’t include the full digital auditorium experience, seeing each of the performers play their sets in their own personalized presentations is still a sight to behold.
