Things that make me happy... Tupac Hologram

Things that make me happy... Tupac 3D Hologram @ Coachella Valley Music Festival



This might be the future... First Tupac. Next Biggie, Aaliyah, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley?  This incredible production was created by production house Digital Domain (worked on The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Titanic) and AV Concept (the projection company) for the Coachella Valley Music Festival. This fully digital 2D image was projected through a mirror to create the 3D effect of Tupac performing on stage at the festival located in Indo, California.






The Coachella Music festival is a 3 day music and arts festival that has been around for 10 plus years and featured headliners like, Radiohead, Kanye, Jay-Z, Prince, and The Cure.  This year Tupac made the biggest splash as he performed on stage with Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog at this year show the weekend of April 15th. Who knows... maybe Tupac may go on tour with them at a city near you.



Pros:
1. Coolest use of breakthrough technology
2. Tupac, Snoop, and Dre performing... nuff said.

Cons:
1. None... unless you not a Tupac fan.

Makes me wonder who would like to see a hologram of perform live? One artist? One Song? Why does Bob Marley "Redemption Song" or Marvin Gaye "Mercy Me" come to mind?
