    The only thing worse than top management delivering bad news via video conference would be delivering it via hologram. Yikes.

    Seriously. If you try to throw punches the hologram would just laugh. Kind of like top management already.

    Well Anderson Cooper is a hologram. Or maybe a leprechaun. I always confuse those.

    This technology will be used to showcase the virtual 3D profits generated by the Entertainment and Devices division.

    Well, I'm sure there aren't rides and automatronic robots like Disneyland. They have slave tours in Ghana and Zanzibar and they are beautiful and tasteful. Africans have a very different relationship their history than Americans do. Race isn't an uncomfortable subject. We are the ones with the weird hangups.

    @balala: race might not be a comfortable subject, but it's probably a stupid fucking idea to build a theme park talking about how those upriver hausa used to seel out all the ibo and ijaw in the delta and hey fuck those muslims up north still got all the power- RIOT!


    really. bad. idea.

    From the article:


    "This will be an adventurous ride giving you an historical overview of African music. From hologram images, concert footage, a state of the art recording facility, to robotic figures displaying the rhythmic beats from 300 years ago where music began leading up to the biggest African group in the world, The Jackson Five," says literature from the investment group behind the plan, called The Motherland Group (TMG).


    This actually sounds like the rest of those crazy emails from Nigeria. Part of me thinks that Marlon Jackson is the front man for the biggest Nigerian scam the world has ever seen.
