Intergalactic Summit

Fans of an obscure holofilm series expressed their surprise and shock at the revelation that at least one of the actresses in the series is in fact, a real human flesh and blood person, and not a virtual image!

Virtual actors and actresses are a widespread technology, used by many entertainment producers in a multitude of scenarios, including facilitating translation of popular works.

The holofilm series "King Rouvenor's Court", set during the Garoun Empire period of Gallente Prime history, was produced by an Impetus subsidiary, that recently shut down, following strike action by scriptwriters, over an alleged plan by management to hire drone scriptwriters.

Fallout from that dispute included the revelation that Vivarie Odeune, one of the leading actresses on the series, is not a virtual actress, but instead a real person!

Fans expressed their opinions on several message boards, with many confused and upset.

"I thought she was a virtual actress, now I find out she's real ? I'm so confused !" said one fan.

"I used to have all these fun fantasies, when I thought she was a virtual actress, now I feel creepy and ashamed!" said another.

"That means the thing she did with the thing was for real ?" asked another fan.

"Makes you wonder how many other virtual holofilm stars are real, doesn't it?" said another.

Neither Miss Odeune or Impetus were available for comment.


Gutter Press, bringing you the real stories about real people !

Awww that show was really starting to get good! Such a shame they have to cancel it! Though I am a bit skeptical about these claims that Vivarie is a real person. We use virtual actors because physical perfection is simply impossible to obtain. If this woman does exist, I must meet her in person.

Also, the thing she did with the thing was a rather interesting scene. Perhaps the thing was simply virtual? Or is it real? Wait a second... what If I'm virtual and what I think is virtual is actually real? What if we're all virtual? What if everything is virtual and we are nothing but holoreels for the actual Gallenteans? What if the real people watching us are actual virtual themselves?

It's truly remarkable how a philosophical debate on existentialism can emerge from a tabloid. That's the beauty of Gutter Press.

Alas, it's a shame the show was canceled. Let's face it, nothing that holoprojector studio makes will be able to keep up with their two leading shows, "Gauron Abby" and "Doctor Whom?"

...my life is ruined.

Seriously!? Wow, I could have sworn...

Also:




You're probably right, but the catchphrase to the latter show always did confuse me: "Doctor? To whom may you be referring?". It's really unweildy and cumbersome.

Ah well, I guess I'll be trawling the airwaves to find another show to keep me entertained while mining 'roids.

I hope this doesn't reflect poorly on the actress in question. Although perhaps she could find a real job.

Much better than abusing their charges, at the very least.

As much as your service, I'm sure, is quality, I wouldn't think the night would be quality if you started by paying the hologram. It's much more satisfying when you get to start it by buying a bottle of chilled chardonay and waxing lyrical about the surroundings.

I'm glad you think so. I'm not above taking advantage of my novelty factor.

Denak, most non-Gallente feel 'left out' after meeting a Gallente women...

Most Gallente feel exhausted after leaving a Gallente holo suite...

Remember, my holograms always show gratitude after leaving them a tip!

As long as they do not cancel My Miniature Drones: Bandwidth is Science i'all live.

Oh no, are they cancelling that? I hope they aren't cancelling that. I like that. The little white and pink one especially, the singing one. It's my favourite.
