Couple MIKU EXPO updates...
2023 VR is going to be on November 12th. It's going to be streamed through YouTube and Twitch, with YouTube also having the VR version of the concert available. I believe there'll also be a Digital Stars portion being streamed, too?
And in 2024...
The World Tour Series begins with MIKU EXPO 2024 North America, celebrating the 10th anniversary, with a whole number of locations and dates from April through May.
https://mikuexpo.com/na2024/ Seems like Crunchyroll is sponsoring, and giving presale ticket access to Crunchyroll Premium members.
Fairly exciting stuff there?
Also interesting things...
Yamaha is trialling a VOCALOID beta-STUDIO to explore expansion of voice synthesis, and ways of implemented new technologies with help from creators. It's application only, and comes with a handful of different voicebanks, of which the ones that seemed most notable/got a lot of discussion were the UTAUs Gekiyaku and Kazehiki, which was pretty interesting to see.
