Only the Avatar, master of sound bending, could stop them, but when the world needed her most, she vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, a soundbender named *Ariana* . And although her sound bending skills are great, she has a lot to learn before she's ready to save the live autotune bending industry. But I believe *Ariana* can save the music industry.
I'm forever going to be angry about the lack of recognition Imogen Heap has endured her entire career. She's the most incredible embodiment of art, she's always been on the cutting edge of musical composition, and she gets no credit for it. It's just not fair.
it's not enough. until yesterday i only know her from hide and seek. if i hadn't stumble across this video, i'd never know how trully amazing and brilliant she is. it's really not fair.
@Zero Cool IT WASN'T THAT SPECIAL?! Imogen just invented a new genre, a new instrument, A NEW WAY TO MAKE MUSIC! and You say it wasn't that special?! That instrument was (still is) WAY better than any of Justin Bieber's music!!!
Actually she's not underrated at all. She's very well respected in many different ways, including academia, research, even pop commercial success. no my friend, the Heapster is humming right along, and, she just had a baby girl last year, so she's even a new mother!
Makes me imagination the next generation of this technology: full-body suits with tension-sensors worn by dancers choreographing some amazing fusion where dance doesn't respond to music but rather manifests the music. she's a pioneer.
and hackers turning it to grunge and having an underground ring of the new wave of bootleg sensor systems wild craziness and free expression of emotion
As a former dancer and pianist, this is exactly my first thought after I saw her demonstrate these. And as physicist, this rings all the other bells and whistles (no pun intended)!
Musical midi gloves have been around for over twenty years, of course they are much much better recently. William Gibson, the guy who also coined the word cyberspace, spoke about them in a novel maybe thirty years ago.
I love, love, love how she is adorably awkward at the beginning and then as soon as she starts making the music she becomes just effervescent. Her movements are so graceful and natural. Love her.
Hermetic Kitten a glimpse to the future of how it began was in late 80s. This tech wasn't at this stage but hand movement in front of an optical laser sensor . Same basic operational techniques
I think it's great that people ended up here, regardless of why. But that being said, it's a bit frustrating that Imogen and the team working on this have been developing it for years and years, and when it's finally finished, Ariana Grande puts a video online and suddenly I see headlines implying that Ariana has developed them or commissioned them. Really? It's great to get the word out (and i'm sure she's invested in them as much as she is allowed, because it's a great business decision), but I would be trying to give credit where credit is due.
It does but i saw the live performance of her performing with them and she even played a clip of imogen explaining her invention, I doubt shes trying to take credit, and I dont think Imogen cares about getting any I feel like shes doing this for herself
yes, ariana did bring me here but that doesn't take away the fact that I think this woman is AMAZINGLY talented and a genius. no need to be mad about people who came here through her. i love imogen so much, her music is original and complicated and i really appreciate it, she deserves a lot more recognition
sprinkleofkim doesn’t matter how you got here regardless of what people say, no one automatically knows everything, everyone finds artists through different paths, just be glad you found her
xtranscendence i believe she performed with the actual gloves a few years back, i think it was Hide and Seek because lots of people were screaming when she got to the ‘mm whatcha say’ part lol. im sure if you look it up it’ll pop up!!
In what way is this a freak show? She's a consummate musician stretching the boundaries of technology, and sharing the process to show us what's possible.
@@MegzLife I can't wait to actually be able to full dive into a soundscape.. there's going to be a whole new medium of art that will be like.. experiencing a trip. it's going to be nuts.
No better musician to showcase this kind of technology IMO... Imogen Heap is a musical genius and an amazing woman. I'm just in awe of what she produces and how organic/expressive it all feels.
I’ll never forget one of the years I went to Coachella and IH was playing one of the smaller tents right around sunset. This was around 2010, right before Coachella REALLY popped off and started the two different weekends. Anyways, my friends were hungry and were going to get food. Just barely audible, I could hear her starting her set. I completely left my group and watched her entire set. Her was one woman putting on a show that sounded like it was being done by 15 people. All that was great but the thing that really stood out to me was how empty that tent was. And I kid you not, I got the feeling that IH was kind of annoyed by the audience… but even so she put on one of the most memorable performances of the weekend, which is saying something.
I enjoy Imogen's performance more every time I watch this! True, this technology was barely out of the lab when she performed this, but her working around the glitches was amazing. Considering the theme of the song, an AI wanting to experience love, rising far above tne sum of it's programming, the imperfections of the Mi.Mu Glove technology makes the song more meaningful.
This is beyond amazing. I was into her like 10+ years ago and now I'm rediscovering how amazingly talented she is. Truly a pioneer of music technology.
I think this invention is amazing. Such a clear sound, quite interesting and captivating watching what feels like the creation of each melody in the song. Of course there are kinks with it still and everything's not perfect, but I feel as if I'm watching something be created in front of my eyes. Will also admit that this performance was not the best, but Imogen Heap's creativity and talent far out way that opinion of this one performance out of so many others in her ever expanding career. I personally loved the performance still :)
KeiyaValecourt Totally agree..she is pushing boundaries and I couldn't even think of a better fit for these gloves! You could tell that she wasn't satisfied after the performance, but I believe everybody in that audience was aware that they were a part of witnessing history in music & technological innovation. Seeing a part of the process is captivating in and of itself because most artists do not show this side of things (especially in America where they want everything perfect before they ever perform a new song). Not that there isn't anything wrong with a perfect performance, but there is something so authentic about the fact that Imogen had 5hrs to write this song before the first time she ever performed it. Imogen Heap's music carried me through some crazy difficult and lonely transitions and times in my life, even over a decade ago. To be watching her throw herself into such an incredibly HUGE project makes me feel like I have a lot of work to do when it comes to putting effort into the things I am passionate about (lol let alone figuring out what that is at this point in my life. Was acting and music, but now I have kids and work in a gym. Not what I imagined my future to be!) I think she not only moves people musically, but inspires people for life! She is one magnificient woman!
Watching this in 2020 when the gloves are set to release in September, it's insane to see how far these gloves have come in 10 years. I have endless respect for imogen and I'm so excited to see what these gloves will become now that smaller creates can get their hands on it and not just ariana for one tour.
Listening to this makes my hair stand on end and my skin go all euphoric. Her sounds and tech brings into my mind things that I've never experienced before in the world of creation and sound.
WOW. This seems really complicated, lol. But it's perfect for someone brilliant like Imogen, who uses so many different ambient sounds in her songs, I'm looking forward to hearing more of her work very much!
This seems like a more natural way to produce digital music. Using a program on the computer requires very deliberate decisions whilst this seems like it could allow for spontaneous sounds.
She's a completely mad genius. Utterly, utterly brilliant. I don't understand how there is a Nobel Prize for literature, but not for music. If there were, I cannot think of anyone else in the 21st century who could be more deserving of it.
This woman is truly the first Technomancer!, Love the way she dresses, Her out fit reminds me of as I said Techno-Mage/TechnoMancer, love the hair; And style, She has a Pure genius' mind, This is a Great Product for DJs and Beginners Alike! I would Buy it!
And now 7.5 years later, they're finally available to the public (mimugloves.com)!! Imogen and the Mi.Mu gloves are so incredible. Not nearly enough credit where credit is due.
Imogen Heap is an incredible artist and performer; fwd until 13'25. I am really amazed by her feeling of soundspace; modern technology can create so beautiful imaginary landscapes, just moving arms and hands.
This is beyond genius and I'm seeing this for the first time, almost 10 years later... shows just how underappreciated and unrecognized this woman is. Shame on me. Shame on the entertainment industry. Shame on us. 🥺 I'm mindblown and upset. 😓
Imogen and her team have taken Airbanding into the 21st century...they have made it manifest itself into existence, in effect. My apologies, it's a tad difficult to ennunciate what I've just seen and heard!
This is incredible. Followed her every move since 2007 and she ceases to amaze me. Regardless of whether you like her music or not, you have to give her boundless credit for her innovation and ambition. Amazing.
I'm American and I love the British, but you guys are so subdued. When she starts to demonstrate what the gloves can do-- it was silent. We would be flying off the handle because of the prospect.
How am I just discovering this beautiful performance now? Been a long time Immie fan, and her talent (and this track!) definitely deserves more recognition. I've always thought this song was perfect for GITS // SAC. Someone really needs to put her in touch with the producers of that show.
It boggles the mind how visionaries and true artists like Imogen languish in obscurity, while relatively talentless manufactured reality show hack soloists and groups get all the accolades and recognition.
This is sadly the truth throughout history about many of the pioneers in music, in that sense Imogen Heap is no different. Frustrating how the most amount of work often results in the least amount of attention for many pioneering artists…
An extremely gifted singer, but also it seems, a huge understanding of effects to enhance arrangements in performance, rare gift for any all round entertainer.
I'm with you. I admire Immi's talent. Just because Ariana Grande have performed too with Mimu Gloves people are commenting by their ignorance that Ariana brought them here.
I’m shocked and confused. So many people in the comments saying she’s not recognised… I think ya’ll just listen to the pops/rap songs on mainstream radio. She’s legendary and works with massive artists. She’s deep in the music industry, revolutionising the system. Just need to look a bit deeper than current pop artists … it’s like saying Radiohead is underrated…
This is AMAZING, I bet a little people now our technology has come this far, more people need to noe the existence of the mimu gloves, this is the future!
I am speechless..it was so transcending..beautiful..ethereal..I completely cried at its creation.. I wonder if as a dancer ..that dances to the music..now will become the creator of sound ..movement and emotion..just by thoughts ..the next evolution..I hope I’m alive to see it..Imogen is the muse of the goddess of old
I've had the pleasure of seeing Immi live and now I keep going back to this vid. I can't wait to see her come back to tour Oz again ♡ And those gloves, amazing!
Here from Objective Personality. They were talking about her speech patterns, and didn't get into the music - so I was insanely curious what her gloves sounded like.
O.O wow .........this stylus for music completely compliment Imogen's style .....wonder how awesome it would be to see her preform some of her first albums with them
She is so cool. I love all of her music, her production sounds like composition and everything she does is so freaking ethereal. I also really want to get these gloves one day when my band is rich and my damn student loans are paid.
A TRUE genius without due recognition she is a REAL creator her music evolves and reaches such depths uniquely speaking to us all, how I love known the M in Muse solo or as a machine....we love you DEAR IMOGEN 😘
Imogen: The Last Sound Bender
IncaFilms x 😂😂😂😂💜
the first !

Only the Avatar, master of sound bending, could stop them, but when the world needed her most, she vanished. A hundred years passed and my brother and I discovered the new Avatar, a soundbender named *Ariana* . And although her sound bending skills are great, she has a lot to learn before she's ready to save the live autotune bending industry. But I believe *Ariana* can save the music industry.
@@offgun6466 now Jacob Collier is gonna take over huehue
I'm forever going to be angry about the lack of recognition Imogen Heap has endured her entire career. She's the most incredible embodiment of art, she's always been on the cutting edge of musical composition, and she gets no credit for it. It's just not fair.
smh
Okana Adonis OMG YES THANK YOU
I'm pretty sure she gets a ton of recognition.
it's not enough. until yesterday i only know her from hide and seek. if i hadn't stumble across this video, i'd never know how trully amazing and brilliant she is. it's really not fair.
For example, once she used fan samples of noises to create her music.
and I cannot believe she didn't get a standing ovation after that. That really is genius.
I thought exactly the same. What a difficult audience!!! :(
I think it was just a lot to absorb for some.
@Zero Cool IT WASN'T THAT SPECIAL?! Imogen just invented a new genre, a new instrument, A NEW WAY TO MAKE MUSIC! and You say it wasn't that special?! That instrument was (still is) WAY better than any of Justin Bieber's music!!!
It's tedx not a concert techys n whatnot n not everyone likes everyone but she is incredibly incredible
I was thinking the same, it was a polite clap.
She needs much more attention than she gets. A true artist; painting with sound.
smirch yes that’s it she is painting with sound!
Beautifully said!
The painting is beautiful!
Not needs she deserves much more attention 😉
@Scraxkat You're lucky being dumb isn't physically painful.
Imogene Heap is such an underrated artist. She's a one man band and she's brilliant
right!
Rain White one woman band
Rain White good
Actually she's not underrated at all. She's very well respected in many different ways, including academia, research, even pop commercial success. no my friend, the Heapster is humming right along, and, she just had a baby girl last year, so she's even a new mother!
you must be an ariana grande fan LOL. she is not underrated. shes been around quite long mate.
Makes me imagination the next generation of this technology:
full-body suits with tension-sensors worn by dancers choreographing some amazing fusion where dance doesn't respond to music but rather manifests the music.

Nick Stephens that would be amazing
That would be gorgeous
and hackers turning it to grunge and having an underground ring of the new wave of bootleg sensor systems wild craziness and free expression of emotion
What u just proposed is incredible that could happen now
As a former dancer and pianist, this is exactly my first thought after I saw her demonstrate these.
And as physicist, this rings all the other bells and whistles (no pun intended)!
If ANYONE on God's green earth was gonna come up with musical gloves, of COURSE it would be Imogen Heap. This is so fun to watch.
daftoptimist i chuckled at your comment.
Musical midi gloves have been around for over twenty years, of course they are much much better recently. William Gibson, the guy who also coined the word cyberspace, spoke about them in a novel maybe thirty years ago.
she didn't though
I find Imogen Heap's talking very soothing. How she kinda goes off topic, but recognizes it and brings it to a fast whisper.
I love, love, love how she is adorably awkward at the beginning and then as soon as she starts making the music she becomes just effervescent. Her movements are so graceful and natural. Love her.
I am amazed by this perfomance. Imogen Heap is making the history of music!
The history? You mean the future of music.
I mean that she is giving a glimpse of how music will be in the future; therefore she is making the history of music!
Hermetic Kitten a glimpse to the future of how it began was in late 80s. This tech wasn't at this stage but hand movement in front of an optical laser sensor . Same basic operational techniques
ptennisproductions were being produced. Like a theramin
Theramin is from the 60s or 50s
Imogen Heap is to the music world what Tony Stark is to the world of super heroes.
AmoebaMan she is
Ha yes!
Yasssss!
But less recognized.
Yaaaaaaaaaas!!!!!
Her desire for innovation is the essence of her music. Thank you, Ms. Heap.
The audience seems so underwhelmed at the end, wtf. My mind was blown, standing ovation!
It's because the song is kinda boring.

An extremely gifted singer, but also it seems, a huge understanding of effects to enhance arrangements in performance, rare gift for any all round entertainer.

O.O wow .........this stylus for music completely compliment Imogen's style .....wonder how awesome it would be to see her preform some of her first albums with them
I picture her as a fairy flying around like tinker bell. crazy equipment
She is so cool. I love all of her music, her production sounds like composition and everything she does is so freaking ethereal. I also really want to get these gloves one day when my band is rich and my damn student loans are paid.
This is so strange to me, but I really like it.
It'd be awesome to see this tech get its way into metalcore.
9 years later, this video is what got me into Imogen Heap's music! 😊
A TRUE genius without due recognition she is a REAL creator her music evolves and reaches such depths uniquely speaking to us all, how I love known the M in Muse solo or as a machine....we love you DEAR IMOGEN 😘
8:44 is kinda funny, in my opinion. Heap: Hu-uh-uh! Gloves: Beware, you're in record mode~eware. Be mo-If I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-if I-i… … …
after she explained all the gestures and everything, watching her perform is very impressive!
Ariana can't do what imogen just did here
She hasn't even used them yet wtf? What's the point in being so negative. She's going to try her best.
you obviously have not seen her use them
Her artistry is amazing! I'm impressed by the technology and I'm even more impressed by her musicality, her humanity.
so beautiful and this is out of this world, i love every second of this. i wish she would actually come out with this song though, it's awesome!
Imogen is amazing, I couldn't think of anyone more suitable to help develop/demo this tech
SHE'S SPECTACULAR
She might be the coolest person alive
she gives me hope in humanity omg shes is a genius
I have no idea how the audience are able to sit still through this entire performance! This technology is something incredible!
This is amazing. Truly. The drum part slightly reminded me of Mr.Bean's imaginary drum kit lol
