Everyone has already heard about the Tupac Hologram that played at Coachella earlier this year. But with Queen's recent announcement of a Hologram Freddie Mercury and TLC's plans for a Hologram Lisa Left Eye Lopes, it looks Hologram pop stars are here to stay.

They are the heralds of New Aesthetic, a hotly debated new art movement dedicated to the blending of art and technology.
