星の位置を測るとき
僕の位置も確かめる
在るべき場所はここなのか
進むべきはこの道か
そこに居たことを忘れられても
悲しいなんて思わない
アストロラーベが示す、僕の位置
儚さを纏う、星の価値
自分の場所は確かめた
あとは全てを受け入れよう
「何者かにならないといけない」
自分を焦らす、その言葉
縛った両手は解き放て
すくんだ足も動き出す
名を残すことは求めずに
小さな満足を見つけに行こう
アストロラーベが導く、この旅に
忘れた思いを呼び戻す
最後に見たい景色があった
宇宙から見る星たちだ
長い時間が、かかったが
やっと宇宙へ飛び立てる
小さな自分は、広がる宇宙の一部になる
そう思えるようになれたんだ
アストロラーベを胸に抱き
地球を離れ、宇宙へ飛んだ
見える景色は星に埋まり
心の全てを飲み込んだ
アストロラーベをそっと手放し
少し笑って呟いた
「悪くなかった」

Astrolabe - Echoes of Hope -
JACKPOT031
This piece is a story about a journey of self-discovery through the stars.
The astrolabe, a tool to measure the position of the stars, is a symbol and a tool for the protagonist to confirm his position in the midst of his wanderings.
The story depicts the protagonist, who asks himself whether it is right for him to stay here and whether this is the path he should take, eventually discovers a certain hope in the fragility and begins his own unique journey.
The days are filled with impatience and anxiety, and the feeling that one must become someone else. However, this song conveys the importance of releasing those burdens and finding small satisfactions and joys without being preoccupied with making a name for oneself.
The message in the lyrics is the sense that we are part of the universe, which we sometimes tend to forget. The words "It wasn't so bad," which the protagonist mutters after letting go of the astrolabe and looking out at the expanding universe, express a peaceful acceptance of everything.
Through this song, we hope that people will remember the importance of taking a step forward that is uniquely their own, and of having the courage to take that step forward.
Artist Profile
JACKPOT031
JACKPOT031 (Jackpot-Zero-Three-One) is an AI-driven artist from Hokkaido, Japan. The artist name comes from a cigarette brand once smoked and a number chosen on a whim. Unable to read music, play instruments, or sing well - Even so, motivated by the desire to "release something I was involved in to the world," they began an expressive activity using AI technology. Lyrics and short stories are developed through conversations with ChatGPT, then rewritten and refined in their own words. AI is also used for composing, vocals, and illustration. On October 24, 2024, they posted their first single "Like a Drifting Star" on YouTube, officially starting their activity. Just as AI allowed someone who once gave up on expression to finally bring their work into the world, JACKPOT031 hopes that their activity will become a "spark of expression" for others who have almost given up on creating.
