Tupac live at Coachella 2012

[Alpha]

THIS

How awesome are hologram performers?

Or do you think this is actually a little disturbing? What if it wasn't Coachella... but something more controversial? What if he had been programmed (is that the right verb for doing something as a hologram) to say something he wouldn't have agreed with? The guy's dead -- should we just leave it at that?

Should someone go ahead with a Beatles reunion? Should Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones sidestep the wishes of Robert Plant (and the deceased-ness of Bonham) and holagramise a reunion?

So. Hologrammatic musical performances of real people. Cool or perverse? Or both?



EDIT: Also take a moment to think about how futuristic we ALREADY ARE. The year 2000 may have arrived without jetpacks, but we've got holograms now, goddamit.
