Uma obra de arte, combinando a música vocal e instrumental de YOASOBI com uma profusão de imagens e cores, fez sua estreia no programa TOKYO Night & Light em 26 de julho. O show noturno usa o exterior do Edifício N.º 1 do Governo Metropolitano de Tóquio (TMG), com 243 metros de altura, como tela. Três outras projeções criadas por artistas aclamados internacionalmente também se juntaram ao menu no mesmo fim de semana.

YOASOBI – a vocalista Ikura, de 23 anos, e o cantor e compositor Ayase, de 30 anos – contribuiu com a nova composição “Butai ni Tatte (Standing on the Stage)”, que reflete as emoções dos atletas prontos para a competição. A música foi adotada pela emissora pública japonesa NHK como tema de seus programas esportivos, e sua primeira apresentação do Night & Light foi programada para coincidir com a cerimônia de abertura das Olimpíadas de Paris.

Para a primeira exibição, uma multidão se reuniu na Praça dos Cidadãos, ao pé do prédio de 48 andares, um marco no centro de negócios e entretenimento de Shinjuku. Eles assistiram a imagens de silhuetas animadas de corredores e outros atletas se divertindo na parede.

O projeto Night & Light cumpriu à meta da TMG de criar um “novo recurso turístico para colorir a vida noturna de Tóquio”, atraindo 280.000 visitantes em cinco meses desde seu lançamento em 25 de fevereiro. Projetado em uma área de 127 metros por 110 metros, o espetáculo foi certificado pelo Guinness World Records™ como a “maior projeção mapeada arquitetônica (permanente)”.

Exibido a cada meia hora entre 19h30 e 21h30 atualmente, o programa reúne algumas projeções durante 15 minutos. Nos fins de semana e feriados, a série apresenta atrações que atraem o público, como o mundialmente famoso monstro do cinema japonês Godzilla e uma obra inspirada nas tradicionais pinturas japonesas Ukiyo-e. “Standing on the Stage”, com 3,5 minutos de duração, será exibido todas as noites por enquanto.

YOASOBI, que significa “sair à noite”, é um nome globalmente conhecido cinco anos após sua estreia. Seu sucesso “Idol”, o tema da animação de TV “Oshi no Ko”, se tornou a primeira música japonesa a liderar a parada Global (excluindo os EUA) da Billboard em junho do ano passado. Também foi reconhecida como a melhor música popular do Japão em termos de royalties no ano até março de 2024.

LONDON (AP) — A car-ramming at a Christmas market in Germany, which police are treating as an attack, is the latest in a grim series of events in which vehicles have been used as deadly weapons.

There have been a spate of such attacks over the past decade, some committed by groups but most by individuals. The motives – where they could be established – have varied widely. Some were inspired by Islamic militant groups such as al-Qaida and ISIS, which encouraged followers to carry out low-cost, low-tech attacks with cars and trucks. Others have been linked to mental illness, far-right extremism and online misogyny.

What law-enforcement authorities term “vehicle as a weapon attacks” have reshaped cities around the world, as planners erect concrete barriers around public spaces and build anti-vehicle obstacles into new developments.

Here are some major vehicle attacks:

MAGDEBURG, Germany, Dec. 20. 2024 — At least five people are killed and more than 200 injured when a car slams into a Christmas market in eastern Germany. The suspect, who was arrested, is a 50-year-old doctor originally from Saudi Arabia who had expressed anti-Muslim views and support for the far-right AFD party.

ZHUHAI, China, Nov. 11, 2024 — A 62-year-old driver rams his car into people exercising at a sports complex in southern China, killing 35 people in the country’s deadliest mass slaying in years. Authorities said the perpetrator was upset about his divorce but offered few other details.

LONDON, Ontario, June 6, 2021 — Four members of a Muslim family die when an attacker hits them with a pickup truck while they are out for a walk, in what Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau calls “a terrorist attack, motivated by hatred.” White nationalist attacker Nathaniel Veltman was sentenced to life in prison.

TORONTO, April 23, 2018 — A 25-year-old Canadian man, Alek Minassian, drives a rented van into mostly female pedestrians on Yonge St., the main thoroughfare in Toronto, killing 10 people and injuring 16. Minassian told police he belonged to the online “incel” community of sexually frustrated men.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31, 2017 — Sayfullo Saipov, an Islamic extremist from Uzbekistan, drives a pickup truck onto a popular New York City bike path, killing eight.

BARCELONA, Aug. 17, 2017 — A man driving a van slams into people on the Spanish city’s crowded Las Ramblas boulevard, killing 14 and injuring many others. Several members of the same cell carry out a similar vehicle attack in the nearby resort town of Cambrils before they are shot dead by police. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Virginia, Aug. 12, 2017 — During a “Unite the Right” rally, white supremacist James Alex Fields Jr. intentionally drives his car into a crowd of counter-protesters, killing one woman and injuring dozens of people.

LONDON: March 22, 2017 — British man Khalid Masood rams an SUV into people on Westminster Bridge, killing four, before stabbing to death a policeman guarding the Houses of Parliament nearby. He is shot dead. June 3, 2017 — three attackers drive a van at pedestrians on London Bridge before stabbing people in nearby Borough Market. Eight people are killed and the attackers shot dead by police. June 19, 2017 — Darren Osborne, a man radicalized by far-right ideas, drives a van at worshippers outside a mosque in London’s Finsbury Park area, killing one man and injuring 15 people.

MELBOURNE, Australia, Jan 20, 2017 – Six people are killed and more than 30 injured when a car hits lunchtime crowds at a pedestrian mall in Australia’s second-largest city. Perpetrator James Gargasoulas is found to have been in a state of drug-induced psychosis.

BERLIN, December 19, 2016 — Anis Amri, a rejected asylum-seeker from Tunisia, plows a hijacked truck into a Christmas market in the German capital, killing 13 people and injuring dozens. The attacker is killed days later in a shootout in Italy.

NICE, France, July 14, 2016 — Tunisian-born French resident Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel drives a rented truck for more than a mile (almost 2 kilometers) along a packed seaside promenade in the French Riviera resort on the Bastille Day holiday, killing 86 people in the deadliest attack of its kind.

APELDOORN, Netherlands, April 28, 2009 – Former security guard Karst Tates drives a car into parade spectators in an attempt to hit an open-topped bus carrying members of the Dutch royal family. Six people are killed and Tates dies of injuries the next day, leaving his full motive a mystery.
