I think the technology that allows us to do this sort of thing is amazing, but it begs the questions, just because we can, should we ?

I find this sort of thing kind of spooky and wrong on a number of levels. The guys is no longer with us and video's like this come across to me as more like sad people trying to cash in on his popularity. It's sort of disrespectful in my opinion, not to a level that bothers me, but just something I don't care for.

Which reminds me... here's an odd little story which probably explains why I find this sort of thing kind of wrong.

A few years back I was contacted by a Girl who just got married and she wanted me to do some CGI / Photoshop work on her wedding photo's.

Basically her parents had passed away a few years before so he wanted me to scan photo's of her parents and clone them into her wedding photo's.

Spooked the hell out of me and I thought it was actually kind of sick to do that, but she wanted this done so badly she cried.

I did what she asked and it made her so happy she cried her eyes out again in a big way. I really felt seriously uncomfortable, you have no idea. I'm not the best in the world anyway when it comes to thinking of my own mortality and the question of is there life after death and so on. But cloning in dead people to your wedding photos....man that's not only odd, it's bloody spooky.

James
