Deep Nostalgia: this is sick

I've just received in my mailbox an advertisement for something that seems to me really creepy.

I suppose the next step will be animations that can talk, using a person's digital heritage as a basis for synthetic speech. It wouldn't work for your ancestors but it might for that beloved teenage child killed in a road accident. Nobody would really die any more because you could always bring them back.
Nah! I think it's a horrible idea.

Deep NostalgiaTM animates the faces in any photo, so you can see your beloved ancestors "come to life" and watch them smile and move... It gives family history a fresh new perspective by producing a realistic depiction of how a person could have moved and looked if they were captured on video. |
