Do Holograms of media figures promote immortality as well as uploading

what do people here think?

If famous people start recording their most gorgeous amped performances then computer animating them will that bring support to transhuimanism generally

I don't think this would promote immortality or uploading, just like the introduction of the camera has not.

Famous people talking about life extension will promote life extension.

Tupac made an after-death appearance at a recent concert.

Like Churchill mentioned, I would rather have media personalities talking directly about curing aging. However, holographic images of people (alive or dead) certainly makes one think a bit more about identity and the increasingly blurred line between the virtual and real.
