The legendary Orson Welles gave us some of the best films in cinema history (not to mention my favourite commercial outtakes), and although he’s been dead for nearly forty years, he’s been digitally resurrected as an AI tour guide for Storyrabbit.

Storyrabbit creates a personalized 60–90 second audio story based on your location—or a spot you’ve picked on the map—narrated by the host you choose. The company says, “It’s like having your own audio tour guide for the world in your pocket with unlimited stories to tell.” Storyrabbit has made a deal with the Orson Welles Estate to launch Orson Welles Presents. The app will now let users hear stories about specific locations in the iconic voice of Welles.
