If they're searching for holographic noise, OK.

But if the whole exercise is to discover if the universe is a hologram, well, I think these scientists are succumbing to an all-too-common tendency these days to overreach, injecting far too much imagination into their hypotheses.

DBrow already mentioned in an earlier post that one needs to FULLY READ the article to get the real details. The TITLE is very misleading.

Here is what DBrow said:

"They don’t mean an actual hologram. They mean a universe bounded by Planck-scale wave interferences. The article makes it sound like the universe is a human-type film hologram read with a laser in a lab, but read carefully. "

It may be that all the appearance of 'physical' matter is a manifestation of the interference pattern between waveforms of various energy sources, and the time/space continuum.

I think that is really what the reference to holograms is about.
