Say Hi To Lumi
Japan's virtual idol craze has come to consoles in Tetsuya Mizuguchi's Child of Eden, and it begs the old pop question: Do you care how the song is made, as long as it makes you dance?
Lumi, the singer and frontwoman of the Japanese pop band Genki Rockets, is the type of girl every teenager idolizes. In the video for the song “Curiosity,” she is dressed like a fashion-conscious space cadet, standing arms akimbo in the center of a geodesic dome. As the music swells, she comes to life, waving her arms in expressive, hypnotic gestures. Her skin is milky white, and her straight, black hair, parted down the center, emphasizes the symmetry of her face, save for a slightly crooked right front tooth which can be spotted when she smiles. She has a vibrant, youthful demeanor. She smiles often.
