2Pac appeared on stage and performed along side Snoop Dog at the Coachella music festival this past Sunday. This occurred 16 years after Pac was shot to death in Vegas. The performance was a realistic hologram of 2Pac. Check it out!



Would have been awesome to actually see.

This has all sorts of pro v. con applications.

For example, now my kids could see the Beatles or Buddy Holly in concert. That is a pro.

Also, 100 years from now, people will be able to see Lady Gaga in concert. That is a con.

With great power comes great responsibility and as of now the world is 0 for 1 in smart hologram choices, in my opinion of course.

Yes but they AREN'T seeing the Beatles or Buddy Holly in concert. This just reminds of all the people who didn't know that the Titanic was a real thing, give it time and people won't even know who is dead and who isn't.

I guess this offends me the most (though what they did with the original Crow movie was bad too) because I'm a musician and were I to have enough of an impact to ever want to be seen in a hologram, I would feel absurdly abused. Musicians get their shit destroyed in the system while they are alive, why after they are dead too? Besides, boiling a person down to a hologram is disgusting.

I should have seen this coming when megachurches started hologramming in their pastors, they started all of this.
