Jam With Jimi in 4D

 

 

If plans for a music museum in North London stay on track, Rock fans will be able to share the stage with Jimi Hendrix, Freddie Mercury and other departed Rock legends.  the 40,000 square foot museum will deploy holograms of the late artists using technology that generates surprisingly life-like multi-dimensional images.  Lee Bennett experienced the effect at the 2012 Coachella Festival, where the late rapper Tupac Shakur virtually joined Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre on stage.  He says the realism of the high tech trick '...blew people's minds.'  The experience inspired him to include the equipment in plans for his museum so that visitors '...could be transported back to a specific moment of music or play with artists who are no longer alive'.
