Japanese Brand Manufactures a Celebrity

Honestly? There's no way this is true. I watched the video segment a half dozen times, and Aimi's components do not look like those of the girls that they are suggesting.

It's fantastic marketing though. "Let's make them think that a real girl is a virtual girl whose pretending to be a real girl."

The website is fantastic. http://www.icenomi.com/oshimen/index.html

And with global coverage, it's a perfect campaign. And all this for Ice Cream. Amazing.

Andrew Niccols did the same thing with SimOne. Pretending that she was virtual, when in fact she wasn't. She was his wife.

It hints of Idoru, but isn't. This is much more like a Blue Ant kind of feel. William Gibson references.

Idoru, anyone?

Does anyone remember the movie "Simone?"
