(CNN) Democratic presidential hopeful Andrew Yang is taking campaigning to new heights, recently unveiling his plan to use a 3D hologram to campaign remotely in two or
three places at once. Yang revealed his campaign strategy on "TMZ Live" Wednesday, appearing in a video alongside a hologram of rapper Tupac Shakur.

"I was doing a demo of what a hologram would consist of in order to send the hologram me to campaign in Iowa and other battleground states," Yang explained. Yang, who has
centered his campaign around a universal basic income plan, said his team is working with a hologram company and may debut his 3D image as early as June, according to
the Carroll Times Herald.

"We are exploring rolling a truck out that would enable someone to see a hologram of me that is three-dimensional give my stump speech," Yang told the newspaper. "And,
also, if I were in a studio, which we could set up very easily, I could beam in and take questions live."

Yang told the Carroll Times Herald the 3D hologram is a "fun way" to be in multiple places at once but also ties to his presidential message that times are changing.

This guy vapes, doesn't he

[PiddlezMcFuzz]

Are we sure he isn't a time-traveler who is trying to prevent the hellish nightmare future that he comes from? I'm kinda getting a time-traveler vibe here.

[F.X Clampazzo]

Is he the 21st century's Chris Travers?

John Titor is Asian in this timeline due to his changes to the past

Yang is already in 2020 as we speak

[hustlebones]

You guys are voting for him in 2020 while this dude's living in 2120

andrew yang is the physical embodiment of every single silicon valley tech bro

This is just a fancier and much more expensive alternative to just plopping a big TV on a stage and streaming a pre-recorded Nintendo Yang Direct

Yang told the newspaper. "And, also, if I were in a studio, which we could set up very easily, I could beam in and take questions live."

It's live

Still, there's very little separating this hologram idea from a big screen or pointing a projector at a white wall behind a podium.

I think you underestimate the coolness factor, and how things like that can sway the general public’s opinion.

Whether that’s rational or not

This has been done at least once before. There was a French guy a couple of years ago, Melenchon:

I really, really hope he wins the next elections. If we're lucky, the people of France will see that Neo-Liberalism is a failure, especially under Macron, and they'll vote left as a result; but I'm sure we'll see Le Pen win with the way things have gone as of late.
