What in the world is that floaty revolving head behind the grandfather?
That's the vPre. It's the virtual version of me that looks after my websites and things. An early attempt to "upload" myself as it goes. He lives at my homepage, http://dalliance.net/ and mostly just recites my twitter stream, with a search function. :)
I made a video last month, which when I mentioned in another thread someone said I should post as a top level discussion.
It's just a ten minute zero-budget thing I wrote in which a girl has a video conference with her dead and backed-up-then-uploaded grandfather. Intended as the first in a series, but later episodes will only get produced if donations come. Later episodes talk more about AI's failures and the political situation with unrest from the living demanding the dead shouldn't have their jobs etc.
Anyway, watch it here if you like, I'd be happy to hear what y'all think :)
