but I'm sure his spirit will be in the house

So if the foil is at an angle, does that mean that the apparitions have to be created all pulled-out and distorted like those "3-D" sidewalk chalk drawings?

That would be my guess.

2012: THE FUTURE IS FINALLY HERE AND IT KICKS ASS

Plz let them re-create the music video for "Can You Feel It" with 100-ft. tall holograms.

Can't wait for the Makaveli hologram!!

Tupac hologram now in secret Cuban exile with the real Tupac, who is very mystified by this turn of events

Well maybe not.

i've heard that a major label is throwing the idea re a hologram supergroup around.

i.e. taking the idea behind gorillaz to the next level.

no ideas as to who they would be using but still, the very idea just seems wrong ..

kurt cobain and jim morrison together at last perhaps ..

Is George Harrison in hell then?

Who's to say that pic isn't Hell?

All right, Tuomas, help me out. Who's on the far right?

Johnny Cash? I'm not sure.

Robert Forrester and Leonard Cohen are both still alive, so it can't be them.

I think his attire would imply it's Cash, tho the hair looks weird...

why is everyone relaxing while amy winehouse has to serve drinks? doesn't seem fair imo

Ha, not in a million years would I have gotten this right:

Because it is her wine house.

haha Meir Ariel

he's kind of the Dylan figure of Israel, but Israel is a pretty small country

he's good though

I have this image of the unused Tupac hologram just sitting slouched on a box in some warehouse now, blinking his eyes or exhaling condensation at programmed intervals

Poor Frank Zappa isn't even allowed in, he has to stand on a ladder and look in through a boxy window.

I was sort of hoping that wasn't a picture in the background of that GWB shot, but instead a little window that Laura Bush was photobombing through

Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson have apparently been singing their duet to holograms of each other. I guess how effective it looks depends on where you're sitting, but it is kinda funny to hear the crowd go apeshit in this video, right around :30 or so.

singing their duet to holograms of each other

way of the future

How long before a commercial model? Like in 5 years can I just download the Beatles and have them play at my bbq?

it's basically just a projector + a reflective surface + an appropriate transparent surface on which to project it (the illusion is pepper's ghost, what a lot of magicians use). like, the setup is of course not trivial but i suppose ppl could be having the beatles play their bbq right now if they wanted

See: the Tupac hologram

according to the radio ads, eazy e has been added to the holo lineup along w/ odb
