Our World may be a giant Hologram
posted January 17, 2009 - 12:31amThe holograms you find on credit cards and banknotes are etched on two-dimensional plastic films. When light bounces off them, it recreates the appearance of a 3D image. In the 1990s physicists Leonard Susskind and Nobel prizewinner Gerard't Hooft suggested that the same principle might apply to the universe as a whole. Our everyday experience might itself be a holographic projection of physical processes that take place on a distant, 2D surface.
The "holographic principle" challenges our sensibilities. It seems hard to believe that you woke up, brushed your teeth and are reading this article because of something happening on the boundary of the universe. No one knows what it would mean for us if we really do live in a hologram, yet theorists have good reasons to believe that many aspects of the holographic principle are true.
This makes me think that this theory is very parallel to the privilege of being able to explore the world via TV and especially the Internet. We are already on the right path to to accessing the right channel to the future. The TV and internet allow us to travel through time rapidly by being able to explore sights in an instant versus having to take the time to get there. The computer is a source of energy like the Sun, in the form of sunlight and heat, supports almost all life on Earth via photosynthesis, and drives the Earth's climate and weather.
TV and internet enable us to view the world virtually. The Universe in my opinion acts the same way dimensionally as like a mirror. Sounds like we need to learn how to develop the film of the universe in order to see the whole universe(the future).
