Zora aboard the USS Discovery
Zora's dancing avatar
Zora was the name taken by the computer of the USS Discovery after the ship had been abandoned for almost a thousand years. The computer had, over the centuries, developed an artificial intelligence complete with a personality.
This personality was gendered female and had a predilection for the 1957 film Funny Face, starring Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire. A holographic representation of Zora also performed a dance of the film with Craft on the bridge of the Discovery. (ST: "Calypso")
Zora was voiced by Annabelle Wallis, with Sash Striga in a non-speaking role as Zora's dancing avatar.
A deleted line from "Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2", revealed as part of the 2020 San Diego ComicCon@Home table read, indicated that the "Zora program" was under development by the Daystrom Institute in 2258 as a replacement for Control. [1]
