I watched a dead composer perform at an augmented-reality concert. It shows how Apple could transform the entertainment business if it can take AR mainstream.

Before the show started, we sat in a circular auditorium. An announcement gently warned people that recording anything with a phone through the headset's lens wouldn't work:"We won't freak out if you try, but it's probably not worth it."

As the lights dimmed, the audience became ghostly silhouettes, and Sakamoto's avatar appeared center stage. He played"" in a cloud of virtual mist. At first, people watched demurely from their seats along the perimeter, but by the second song, a few started walking around Sakamoto, emboldening the rest of us to follow.
