John Lennon's Voice Returns in One Laptop Commercial
John Lennon's voice has been brought back twenty-eight years after his death using digital technology. Lennon's voice was brought back for a commercial for the One Laptop Per Child charity organization. The organization asks donors to pay $199 to buy a laptop for a Third World child or pay $399 for two laptops, one for a child living in the Third World and one for their own child.
In the commercial Lenon says, "Imagine every child no matter where in the world they were could access a universe of knowledge. They would have a chance to learn, to dream, to achieve anything they want. I tried to do it through my music, but now you can do it in a very different way. You can give a child a laptop and more than imagine, you can change the world."
Yoko Ono approved the commerical which debuted on Christmas Day. Take a look:
