🎃 Project introduction:

When human beings explore the future and seek scientific and technological progress, they often pin some of their reverie about the future in literary and artistic creations such as movies. These sci-fi works carry the infinite imagination and stride direction of human beings, and are most loved by people. , and the one that appears most often in movies is "artificial intelligence".

In sci-fi movies about interstellar exploration, there must be an artificial intelligence-driven virtual captain on the spacecraft where the protagonist and his party live, which sets up the best way forward for the explorers and prompts the dangers that may be encountered ahead; In hero-themed movies, artificial intelligence will not be absent, but the boarding scene is transferred from the spacecraft to the protagonist's weapons or armor, similar to Tony Stark's artificial intelligence butler in the "Iron Man" movie series - Jia Weiss.

This series of films, on the surface, represents the control of human beings over technology, but the deep inner reason stems from the inner loneliness of human beings and the yearning for "accompaniment that will not disappear". We hope to have such a reliable and caring partner who can accompany us all the time.

The NFT to be talked about today is closely related to the theme of "technology and companionship", which is: HOSHI BOSHI.

• What is V-tuber ？

  Before introducing "HOSHI BOSHI NFT", we need to understand a vocabulary, namely "V-tuber".

  V-tuber, that is, virtual YouTuber, also known as virtual anchor, V-singer, V-liver, V-up, etc., is a creator who uploads videos or broadcasts live broadcasts on online video platforms as virtual characters, commonly found on YouTube, Bilibili, Twitch, Facebook, Realy, niconico, Showroom and other film and television platform activities.

  A virtual YouTuber has two parts: a virtual character (also known as a "skin") and an operator (also known as a "soul"). The operator may be an entire team, including programming, motion control, voice actors, etc., or it may be just one person.

  Some virtual YouTubers will use motion capture devices and sensors placed on the head and limbs to display the movements of the characters on the virtual characters. With the advancement of technology, subtle changes such as facial technology and voice recognition are also added. With the help of real-time motion capture, virtual YouTubers can also communicate with fans in the real world in a variety of ways. Some virtual YouTubers also use Live2D to create virtual character models, and use webcams and software such as FaceRig to realize the actions of the models.

  And why do virtual idols exist? Isn't the most important thing about webcasting is authenticity?

  The answer to the question is: privacy.

  Many virtual anchors can become famous while still maintaining a certain degree of privacy. Transgender people or people who do not meet mainstream aesthetic standards can also hide their true appearance and appear in the online world as their favorite appearance, and with the same interests. Socialize together.

  It can be said that the emergence of virtual anchors not only breaks the barriers and boundaries of content creation, but also a breakthrough in the production and consumption of content in the future.

• What does HOSHI BOSHI want to do ?

HOSHIBOSHI wants to build the first web3 V-tuber ecosystem based on NFT concept. "HOSHI BOSHI NFT" will serve as the token of "HOSHI BOSHI DAO" in the future, and NFT holders will participate in and contribute to the future development of the V-tuber talent agency, as well as propose and vote on major decisions. This will help V-tubers understand what audiences really want to see, and help V-tubers under HOSHIBOSHI create better and better IPs to meet the needs of fans.

By strengthening the connection between V-tuber and the NFT community, attractive PFP NFTs can help "HOSHI BOSHI NFT" to cultivate more new V-tuber talents, and eventually "HOSHI BOSHI NFT" will become a traditional V-tuber company replacement of.

As mentioned in the above, the relationship between "HOSHI BOSHI NFT" and V-tuber is inseparable, so each NFT holder can use the NFT in his hand as his own virtual anchor image, "HOSHI BOSHI" The project party will provide technical support.

It is worth mentioning that the "HOSHI BOSHI" project has launched its first V-tuber: MIRA.

The NFT subseries. Therefore, there are still many vacancies on the artist introduction page of the official website. It is not difficult to imagine that more and more well-known Japanese illustrators will join the "HOSHI BOSHI" team in the future.

In addition to artists, the project team also revealed that one of the founders of "HOSHI BOSHI" is a partner of SoftBank's blockchain fund. However, the team currently does not want to raise the price unilaterally through financing, because the project party believes that this is unsustainable, but the team will announce the latest partners in a timely manner.

🎨 Art Design:

The art style of "HOSHI BOSHI" doesn't need too much introduction. You only need to appreciate the picture with the naked eye to discover the uniqueness of its style. The refreshing dress is equipped with the anime first love face with strong two-dimensional style, which makes people the first Eyes are attracted. This is naturally inseparable from the credit of the two artists. The experience of deep cultivation in the two-dimensional illustration industry for many years makes people feel very at ease with the art design of "HOSHI BOSHI".

The art style of "HOSHI BOSHI" is what impresses me the most, because the sentence I always believe is: "NFT can talk, and it will tell its own story with pictures". The most intuitive picture design can bring NFT players the simplest and most in-depth feeling. A good NFT will impress all players with its own artistic design. The rich and solid artistic foundation of the artists of "HOSHI BOSHI" made me choose to trust their NFT works unconditionally. At the same time, the V-tuber culture, which is very developed in Japan and loved by young people, has further consolidated my love for "HOSHI BOSHI". Confidence and hope that "HOSHI BOSHI" can give a satisfactory answer to the market.
