Dark Model 2014

This is the next preview from Dark Model’s first album. It is an uplifting, trance-esque orchestral electronic track featuring minimalistic piano, strings & horn phrases, and marching drums.

With this track, I wanted to put some hopeful and positive energy into the album. It may come off as unexpected from the name of the project; I don’t intend to put any negative message into music under the name of Dark Model. Rather I aim at making music that can inspire and motivate listeners. Themes underlying this project are something like “how to live positively and move forward even when you are in the darkness” or “how to cope with the darkness (of the world, inside you, etc.)”.

For details of Dark Model’s first album, please refer to the album page.

基本的に「音の人」である僕は、世界がますます言語偏重になっていくことを残念に思っている。言語モデル(LLM)が驚くほど沢山の知的タスクをこなせるようになったからといって、「言語化こそが知能の正体」だということにはならない。そこを取り違えると、人間は言葉の奴隷になってしまう。これをどう思うかGeminiに尋ねると、「AIは人間の知性を置き換えるのではなく、人間が持つ知性の“言語化された断面”を極端に肥大化させる装置なのです」。

「(広告や商業)デザインは自分を消すことだ」という意見があると聞く。僕の生業では、表現から自分を消したら終わり。ただ、万が一その手の仕事をするならば、商品やサービスを実際に使う生活者(エンドユーザー)にとってその表現が「善かどうか」で判断したい。現実的にはお金を払うクライアントがOKを出してくれれば仕事として成立するが、課題を解決し、本当にハッピーにしなければいけない相手はその先にいる。「自分問題」はそもそも課題の次元にはない。
