S9: Convergence culture




Some of you may know who they are, some of you may not. Both this video clip has been uploaded to youtube.com and has many viewers viewed the video. They can be labelled as one of the youtube stars that shines above the rest. Marie Digby (the first video) had already visited Malaysia as part of her Asian tour. That is how famous she got when she published herself onto youtube which then record labels signed her to become a full time artist.

Marie Digby from America and the twin sisters (JS) are Koreans from Australia. They are from different countries but have something in common. They love singing and has proved their talent through youtube and got famous from there. It has been seen as a culture-like to video-post themselves through the internet instead of the classic way of recording a demo which to be later on sent to a recording label.




'Coyote Ugly' (2000), portrayed a girl that wants to be a famous song-writer, had to go through the hardship in life just to be able to prove her talent to the world. This movie showed the best example of how it is for a person to be a featured artist and be known. We are able to see the convergence of culture when it comes to the technology that we are able to reach easily thus using it wisely to help us where we stand today.
