This one time, a hologram women approached me at the hotel bar. Wasn't buying it. I could see right through her act.

I've watched every known video of every Beatles and Zeppelin concert known to exist. I suppose that if there was a never-before-seen concert of either of these bands that was converted to a hologram, it would probably be more fun to watch than just a 2D movie of them performing at that concert.

The filmmakers behind the independent film “Finding Jack” said Wednesday that a computer-generated Dean will play a co-starring role in the upcoming production. The digital Dean is to be assembled through old footage and photos and voiced by another actor.
