It was a big weekend for the United Kingdom's Queen Elizabeth II who celebrated her 70th year on the throne.
Her Majesty couldn't jubilate among her subjects due to her advanced age. The ruler traveled through the streets using a hologram, which was beamed into a carriage that was 260 years old. That's right, naturally.
The "hologram" featured archival footage of a smiling young Queen during her 1953 coronation ceremony, riding to Buckingham Palace in the same notoriously uncomfortable Queen-mobile that King George III first took it for a spin.
It wasn't quite a hologram in the sense of a full 3D projection like in "Star Wars" but it was the same technique used by West to give him the gift of his then.
The marriage of the old world and the new is fascinating from an organization like the English monarchy.
We don't blame the Queen for sending a hologram if the carriage ride is intolerable.
A man is married to a hologram and can't talk to his wife.
