<Highlights>
Set the show's central thesis — "Can an inorganic machine possess life?" — and built three entirely distinct narratives and directorial structures across the two days, refusing to present the same concert three times.
Designed the audience as an active layer of the show itself. The experience was constructed as a co-creative arc that began before doors opened and extended beyond the encore, drawing spectators into the story rather than seating them in front of it.
Treated a high-fidelity virtual production set not as scenography behind the performers, but as a directorial instrument on equal footing with them — where set transformation, spatial composition, and lighting carried as much narrative weight as the songs.
Staged 3DCG characters, the physical humanoid robot ALEV-1, and human performers as co-existing presences within a single shared theatrical space. The performance deliberately moved beyond the conventional boundaries of character-CG live shows, in which the virtual idol typically remains contained within a screen or a fixed virtual stage.
Owned the project end-to-end as a director — from concept and partial scriptwriting in the earliest planning phase, through robot performance design, virtual production direction, and on-site stage and lighting direction at the venue.
